Which headphones should I get for gaming?

[Kingslayer Kyle]

Hello,

 

My logitech G930's just broke and I need a new headset asap, I'm from the UK and my budget is £100, Although spending less would obviously be better..

 

I use my headset for listening to music and mostly gaming, It must be 7.1 surround, very loud and clear audio (I prefer wired headsets btw)

 

Which are the best headsets that I could get?

 

Thanks for any help

I want to try and get the best possible headset for £100 so if there's anything better then I'd prefer to go for the best quality possible.

dont get razer, overpriced trash, if you have to have 7.1 then get the clouds, not had them personally but heard good things.

if i was to recommend any gaming headset though, id recommend the sennheiser g4me one, if you can find one for £100, its not 7.1 but its miles better than any of these headsets from razer, you could always use a programme that makes it virtual 7.1

All of that 7.1 is bs. First of all it is virtual surround in 99% of all headsets, that mean it is software that does it, not hardware. The few "real" ones are not really real, since the drivers are way to close to each other to really make real surround sound and the drivers are not 100% synced up, it is also shitty small drivers in all of the "real" ones.

 

Do you need a mic? It is kinda hard to tell since you call it headphones (no mic) and headset (mic).

If you don't need a mic look at the pinned post with headphones or if they need to wireless well look at the sennheiser RS line up.

If you need need a mic well it does not get much better than the clouds when it comes to headsets. For wireless headsets I would recomend none, because they are all shit.
