I didn't order the V3s because I heard the mids were worse than the V2s, I had the V2 Frost Blues for the longest time, is upgrading to V3 worth it?

Both of them sound bad. Consider better options.

If you're worried about sound then you're looking in the wrong place.

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.

V2 is pretty okay for the 50 bucks you can sometimes get them for. At best, V3 is about the same quality (though some reviews say they're noticeably worse), yet cost a fair amount more.

Yea I think the sound is great for a gaming headset, but bad in terms of audiophile quality. My brother owns PC 363D from Sennheiser and they're great! But I do prefer the Siberia in terms of comfort.
