I am planning to buy a gaming headset. Do you have any recommendations?

I have tried the logitech g35 and I really liked the sound quality, but the asus orion pro also looks kind of epic.

or should i buy a dedicated graphics card and headset without dsp?

Thanks in advance.

I can't afford these. Electronics is so expensive in Norway. The max i can go is 140$

I got myself the corsair 2000 wireless headset (Bluetooth). Its very good.. For $150 Aussie dollars. It has 7.1 support which is entirely useless.. I just use 2.0 input and 2.0 output.

Have a look at the Pioneer A1000, see if they fit your budget when you add a mic - the Zalman clip-on was cheap in Europe last I looked.
