HyperX Cloud 1 or 2?

Ok, so I need to buy a new headset. I searched and watched a few videos and am not sure if I should get the HyperX cloud 1 or cloud 2.

 

HyperX Cloud 1: €85

HyperX Cloud 2: €120

 

I went to a local gaming store and the manager recommended the Cloud 1. He said he didn't find the 7.1 surround useful in gaming.

 

Now I know that the cloud 2 has a noise cancelling mic,  7.1 surround and can be plugged via USB or 3.5mm jack.

 

What do you guys think is best, and which one would be worth it on your opinion? Is there a big difference in the mic quality? Is there maybe anything I missed?  

 

Thank you :)

Get the cloud cores, cheaper and they all sound the same (excluding the 7.1 virtual surround sound gimmick).

It's just that they lack accessories that the others provide, aside from that, they are practically the same.
