Best Gaming Headset Under $80

[iAmHaydenn]

Hey guys .  I am currently am looking at a gaming headset after previously asking what GPU and PSU I should get.  I was thinking.  What is the best gaming headset for around/under $80?  I was thinking of the Razer Kraken Mobile (Neon Edition) but what do you think is the best gaming headset for around/under $80?

any of The hyper x cloud series

[PlayStation 2]

I'm pretty sure the original HyperX Clouds are $80 or something and the Cloud IIs are $90.

I might get the HyperX Cloud headphones.  The funny thing is where I live, a replacement beats cable ($40) is almost the same price as the original Clouds ($58)

Also, should I get the Original HyperX Clouds, HyperX Cloud Core or HyperX Cloud Pro?  They are all around the same price and I don't know which one to get!!!!

I am by no means an audiophile.  But I have a pair of these and absolutely adore them.

they all sound the same, but there are some material differences between them, just don't get the cloud 2, they come with a shitty sound card and a really short jack cable.

If you can, try to get your hands on a Creative SoundBlasterX H5. It's about $100 though, but as reviews go, it's a no frills stereo headset with really good audio quality. Personally I'd avoid all these multichannel headsets. They don't add any value to a good stereo headset, so don't pay for it. LTT has a great video describing this:

I really don't care what headphones I get as long as they are red and black to match my color sheme.  And plus, I've already decided on the cloud pros.
