Hello everyone,

 

Something solid would be awesome since i am clumsy.

Max price would probs be around 100 - 125 euros.

 

Thanks in advance,

That would put him over budget by quite a bit. I would recommend the Kingston HyperX Cloud/Cloud 2 headset. Nice mic, sound quality and comfort all rolled into an affordable bundle.

Basically paying for "7.1" surround and some minor things, but to that it's not a big of an improvement compared with the first.

I don't believe there is any differences in build quality to be honest the cans themselves are the same, the differences are a better noise canceling mic and a surround sound card. Also what are you doing to your headsets?

Ehm i was really irresponsable when breaking the hyper x 1. (i won't go into details because some of the reasons are a little embarassing). Would the hyper x 2 be able to still work after falling a couple of times ?

Don't worry man we've all thrown a headset across a room after getting rekt by some scub...right guys?..... Yeah they definitely come across as sturdy, they will survive some knocks for sure, ofc if your determined to break them like any piece of electronics they won't last, though i spos that kinda goes without saying

Best option would be to get audiophile headphone and a microphone. However, if you cannot be bothered, then for a gaming headset, there is only 1 option. Hyper X Cloud 1/2. They are pretty much the only option for a gaming headset. Their sound quality is the best, its super comfortable and high quality (of course this is against the other gaming headset). Razer Kraken is no where as good as these, the only headset that comes close to being as good as these are the Steelseries Siberia V2.

Alright i'll think go with the hyper x 2 since this is what most  people are recommending to me.

I don't really know, to be honest, I don't play that kind of game very often. However, I know you can do that with the Letton G3 Headset.
