I will be using this build for gaming at a 1920x1080 resolution at near max settings. I will also be doing heavy editing which this build should be able to handle. I will be playing games like; Counter Strike, Minecraft, Prototype, Various Indie/Kickstarter games and many other AAA game titles.

 

Oh, and I need suggestions for a decent gaming headset; a microphone would be useful, it must be comfortable and have decent sound for the games above.

 

Thanks! -Croum

I'm not a fan of the HyperX cans as you pay extra for a cheap mic and flaky USB inline sound card.

 


You could build them:

  $45 Gemini DJ HSR-1000 (closed) or $47 Takstar HI 2050 (open)

  $30 VModa / $43 Mod Mic

  =$75-91

 

Or you can up the sound quality...

 

Open Air - Better sound stage to locate enemies in games

$65 Philips SHP9500 and a VModa/Mod Mic $30 (The Philips will likely be the most comfortable headphones you'll ever try, with or without glasses)

 

Closed - more priority for bass

$99 ATH-M40x and a VModa/Mod Mic $30

 

Or you can pay more and get more - full links here

Why do people want a 390 over a 970 when the 390 runs at twice the power = heat.

 

Quick numbers here

thanks for the figures, and I think the exact same thing...
