I have been thinking of getting a knew headset to replace my Logitech Precision PC Gaming Headset, because they are uncomfortable for long hours of use and i have had many problems with static and such on my mic in-game. I was looking at these 2 gaming headsets:

They are both about the same price, and i am leaning towards the fatal1ty. Which one do you think looks like a better quality headset? If you have either of these pls give some feedback :)

Thanks.
 
My suggestion is the Turtle Beach X51 Surround Sound Headphones

9/10

The only reason its not ten is because a month after I got them the mic stopped working. If you get them twist the mic AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE. They are incredibly soft, a little heavy, but I don't feel it. The sound is crisp and clear.
 
Creative Labs all the way. They and Sennheiser are the only brands that touch my ears as far as headsets :)
 
I have a Sennheisser myself, it came with a USB dongle, but I don't use it, since most USB headsets/connection cause problems after a while. I use the regular analog connections, and sound is great, and mike is crystal clear.
 
well i have not had experience with either of the headsets, but based on how they look, i would go with Fatal1ty
 
Ive been using Logitechs, just got a new one here. Ive never looked at Cybersnipa's so i dont know how good they are but im sure that a Creative wont let you down.
 
Ok guys it seems like everyone likes fatal1ty, i actually ended up purchasing this headset with a 5% off coupon that i found online

http://www.buy.com/retail/Product.asp?sku=204035006

ended up to be only 38$! This is the same fatal1ty headset, only the "professional" version. It is much more expensive in creative.com than the other fatal1ty headset, it is 70$ there. It is an older headset i believe but because its normally more expensive and got very good reviews, i decided to get this one

thanks guys :)
 
I would've recommended these and get a clip-on mic.

Who can honestly put up their eHand and say that they wouldn't want a 5.1 surround sound headset...
 
actually, the cybersnipa ones i showed had 5.1 speakers or w/e =/
 
It said itll take a week to get here, but i just got an email, and i tracked it, and im getting it in the mail tomorrow!

That went from 7 to 10 days, to only 2 days! woo ill tell u how it is when i get it ;) although tomorrow ill be gone all day so ill use it lots on wednesday! :D
 
Well I am a little late to this thread, but I use [link=http://www.amazon.com/Steel-SteelSound-5H-Headset-20065/dp/B000IC0VYA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1209480192&sr=1-1]THESE[/link]. I have been using them since October of last year, and I must say these are the BEST headphones I have ever used. I wear them about 95% of the time I am on my pc, and have never had them be uncomfortable(and some here can attest to how long I am on my pc). And I love the 7.1 virtual surround built in, you can even do a test and hear each individual little speaker and they are coming from a different location. Running around in fps games I can pinpoint where people are so easily, better than any headphones I have previously used. Plus gotta love the retractable mic and that the headphones can be dismantled and put in the included travel bag for easier transport.
 
well i opened them tonight and tried them out and they are pretty sweet :D very comfortable
