I use the Astro A50's. I know Linus didnt think that highly of them, but I really enjoy them, but they did crap out on my after 6 months of daily use.  But I had a third party warranty(first one i ever bought actually) and they replaced them and reset the warranty time to extend it from 2 years from the day I got the replacement.  Other than that, the battery life is really good if you remember to charge them when you get done.  I dont really have much experience on PC headphones,  I bought the A50's for my XBOX One and they are the XB1 version, but I have them running through the Optical Audio form my MacPro.

What is your budget?

[Powerjolt]

i got like 100$

i know this may sound well like i am trying to kill you but go with apples stock earbuds and then get a splitter for audio and mic and well you should work fine i dont know of any good earbuds for gaming but if you find any can you please tell me.(i dont know how iem work for gaming but look around on the internet there may bee as good pair for gaming) 

I did a little research and it looks like thee razor ones are the only "gaming" ones i could find but if you can spend the money look at the Flux In-Ear Pros

Why not consider regular earphones, its not as if regular earphones don't have mics.

My daily driver, Sony Mdr-XB50AP boasts amazing bass, slightly recessed mids and highs, excellent comfort and a light in-line mic with a single button to control play-pause, i recommend them to everyone on this forum that asks for a earphone suggestion

 

Other popular recommendations are (although i never used them before)

-shure 215

-sennheiser momentums

-klipsch s4i

-sennheiser MM30i

They arent for gaming i need something for on the go or like on a plane or something. i was thinking about getting the razer ones because i like their products and they are pretty good themselves. I have the Kraken 7.1 chroma and i love them

First of razer makes noise headsets that is how bad value they are.

Second go look at the pinned post and look at the 100$ category.

I think that the hammerheads are even worse regarded than krakens. But the generally people can't really hear what sounds good or not until they try something of superior standards, so unless you plan to try out actually good earphones anytime soon, i don't think buying into razer products is as bad of an idea. But i believe the people here as well as i are morally obligated to warn you against them as they are overpriced for their quality (as most people believe, but i don't actually own any razer products).

 

Do check out linus' review for them because he says something at the end of said video that is if i recall correctly is pretty similar to what i just wrote.

Yeah we want to warn people about them so they dont use that much money on them, when they could have gotten something that is better for the same price or less. I like the Hifiman RE 400i very much, because they are what people would call "flat" and accurate in their sound.

A tip for OP find out the sound signature you like the most, because that will make this much easier.
