Hey guys!

 

I need a pair of red and black headphones to go with my new PC build! They will be used for gaming and some game recording until I get a new microphone in a few months. Any ideas? I need to keep the price at roughly 50 pounds or less! 

 

Thanks!

Why not just buy the Hyper X cloud 1?

https://www.amazon.co.uk/HyperX-Cloud-Gaming-Headset-Mobile/dp/B00JJNQG98/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1473457494&sr=8-2&keywords=hyperx+cloud

Red and black

£49.99

Very good quality microphone (I use the white version myself)

SUPER comfortable ear pads with real leather (or fabric).

CPU: R5 3600 @ 4.4 GHz

RAM: 16GB DDR4 @ 3200 MHz

GPU: RTX 2080 Super

Obviously not studio grade but still pretty good and I've never had any problems, it also comes with a nice braided cable and a external volume rocker

Well, as the ModMic guy I have to recommend going with great headphones and avoiding integrated headsets.

 

For the low budget of 50, you can still get some nice Superlux 668s then add whatever mic you want later on. I do get that means you cant record well until you save up for the mic, but I just prefer dedicated headphones is all. Even if the mic you get isnt ours :)
