Gaming headset (no mic)

Go to solution Solved by CoolBeans,

DT770 80ohm if you are using onboard audio

Hello, i have just ordered the "blue snowball" microphone and i am currently on the lookout for a new headset primarily for gaming.

Since i am going to be using a standalone mic i was thinking of a headset without a microphone attached to it, any suggestions?

when I'm up, yeah, I might think about putting teamspeak on a 24/7 server since we actually have a sizable amount of people and I wake up late on the weekends because of you guys keeping me up all night xD

Wait, LTT unofficial teamspeak? I'm gonna be pm'ing you about this 24/7 thing when I get home.
