Have you ever listened to good sounding headphones? You don't realize it until you make the change.

my friend has the hyper X cloud, their great but krakens arn't garbage 

sorry but they are, i have some professional dj headphones (srh750dj) and before that i had the krakens and sibera v2's, im so glad i got the srh750dj, sure a little expensive but very good even for gaming

as for pc suggestions i'd go with an ssd, and i dont think a 980ti is really needed, if you really want to max everything 144hz 1080p then get cf 290x or sli 970 and then overclock them, 980ti is pretty much overkill
