I have a budget of $430, going wireless, I play Dota 2, Overwatch, TW3, FO4,etc
Currently "Gears":

Mouse: Logitech G302 which starts to have some buggy clicks and out of warranty ----> Consider the G900 for $123

Keyboard: Razer Blackwidow X(dont need to upgrade this)

Mousepad: Logitech G220 -----> Razer Firefly or the Corsair MM800 Polaris for $60

Headset: Apple Earpods (lol) ------> Consider the G933 for $150 (Disconnect and Low Battery?) or the Man O"War for $170 (this has plastic head band which is gonna fall off but some reviews said this headset was really cool). I get it that Gaming labeled Headsets arent good but I want wireless and my pc doesnt have bluetooth or wifi(a Bluetooth adapter is about $15 or so, but wireless headphones are quite pricey)

Mic: nope -----> headset included or the blue snowball ice for $50?

Webcam: nope -----> some random Logitech one for $30-$40?

Speakers: Edifier M3200(This rocks)
Update 1: I am considering to buy the Razer Mamba Wireless, Firefly and the Man O"War altogether for $320. Is this a good idea?

Why are you interested in going wireless?

 

Also, I would probably go for the G930 rather than the G933. The 930s worked better for me, they sounded the same, they're cheaper, and they don't have lights all over the place. 

 

Honestly though, if you can reason it, go with the Sennheiser HD558 or 598 (If you want/need closed back there's also the hd598c) and a wireless adapter like the BTunes. You'll get about the same sound quality while on wireless (Not sure about the range) but you also have the option to go wired and have unbelievably better sound quality. I went from the G930s to the G933 and then to the HD598 and I would never go back to the wireless.

the headset's cable is very annoying when Im gaming(at least to me)

I just deal with it by having it go over my shoulder and behind my back. The 598 and 558 both come with a 3M (Maybe 10 foot) cable so you have a lot of cable to keep it out of the way. Also, if you can catch it on sale (Which is is pretty often) You'll be able to get the HD598 for quite a bit cheaper than the G933 anyways.
