Can anyone recommend a decent headset? Not looking to spend too much money, just something that does the job reasonably well.
Cheers guys!
Cheers guys!
I always get the £5 ones doesnt matter how expensive the headset, you'll always break them or something... bought a logitech headset for £50 within 2 weeks is was buggering up, bought current headset for £4.99 had it for about a year and a half with no issues...
Was looking at the Fatal1ty ones. Would have to be the HS-1000 though, as I've heard the 800 doesn't have great driver support for Windows 7?
Oh, I still only use ones with 3.5mm headphone jacks, but if going USB, defo check driver support!
Take a look at this. Details and reviews of the best four headsets around.

I'm in the market for a new headset after vacuuming my cables and snapping it
Everybody raves about Sennheiser but they're so damn expensive!
Forgive me if this is a silly question but I'm not clued up on the Audio part of PC systems. Looking to buy a headset now I know in the past when it used to be 3.5mm jacks it was pretty much dependent on how good the headset was as well as the soundcard. Now that they're all USB based does the soundcard in the system have any effect on the sound through the headset?
No, that is the genius of usb sound. You can have no soundcard, or the worst ever soundcard and it will make no difference as its all done through usb.
i use to use expensive ones all the time and were usually 50+, but they last as good as my keyboards so now i just get a cheap pair.
i also recommend the Logitech G35's, had mine since release & they are by far the beast headset ive ever used!
