Hey I was wondering since I don't have a dedicated sound card, I am using a mobo sound card. Is the Razer Kraken 7.1 or Siberia V2 better? I already have a razer kraken 7.1 but someone is willing to trade a siberia v2 for it. Thanks in advance.

Just looking at the prices (Kraken 7.1 $99) and (Siberia V2 $65) It would seem like a bad trade for you. Maybe try out the Siberias and see if you like them more? That would be the only thing i would recommend.

I wouldn't do the trade considering you don't know how the other person treats their stuff since headsets break easily. The sound quality would be similar.

My personal rig - 4790k 4.8Ghz, Asus Z97 Pro (wi-fi ac), Corsair Dominator Plat 4x8GB, SLI GTX 1080 TI FE, Samsung 850 Evo 1TB, Crucial MX100 512GB, EVGA G3 1000W, and cooled by a hardline liquid cooling loop.

Their both USB soundcard

Note that the Siberia have a gap in between your ears which really ruins the headset

Kraken is definitely better trust me

We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”

If you want good audio then you have to go with headphones and not a headset. All headsets sound terrible. The only exception is the Kingston HyperX which is ok for the value. 

My personal rig - 4790k 4.8Ghz, Asus Z97 Pro (wi-fi ac), Corsair Dominator Plat 4x8GB, SLI GTX 1080 TI FE, Samsung 850 Evo 1TB, Crucial MX100 512GB, EVGA G3 1000W, and cooled by a hardline liquid cooling loop.

I agree with the sennheiser if you really want a gaming headset.  Or you can just buy a pair of headphones and a separate mic.

Sennheisers are overpriced. You can get the HD518 and a modmic for $130 and a 280 pro with a modmic for $145 which are well below the $180-$190 pricetag of the headsets and they are the same thing.
