So individual headphones and a microphone?

Headsets are fine if thats what you want, they just generally don't have as pristine audio quality.

 

What budget?

Well, hopefully, this would sound better with the mic and the quality of the headphones.

My main for gaming is Drop + EPOS PC38X.


Looking for a Headset combo like you send for another house. I am under a more strict budget this time.

Also, what about the Vmoda mic's why did you not suggest those is the one you suggested better?

Dude you are not getting better headphone sound for 100usd, PC38x are essentially a Sennheiser HD560S (the 150 usd headphones to buy) given how good your current headphones are i'd just go for a good USB mic

Brother don't get mad with me, if you read no disrespect I said I needed it for another house. I do not have the money to buy ANOTHER pair of headphones. I need either a Headphone and Mic like they were suggesting or Headset. I cannot use the other ones I have.
