Hi there,
I am thinking of buying a new gaming headset, but I am not really sure which one. My budet is 115 USD (200BGN). I mainly play Escape from Tarkov. Do you also think that the HyperX Cloud Alpha are still fine, even that they are 2 years old (Ist the technology outdated) 
Thanks in advice!

Nah not really. Those are fine but you could upgrade to open back headphones for gaming. And a seperate mic like modmic or something similar. I always recommend open back headphones for gamers since they give a better imaging.

Theres is not much that can change about headphones. If they still work fine I'd just keep them.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

And please for the love of god don't buy "gaming" headsets. For the best audio for gaming you don't need RGB or fancy looking headphones you need comfort and audio over looks. Like the hyperX are fine but logitechs RGB and razers products aren't that good. The logitech g pro X is kinda good tho.
