I'm getting completly nuts here. For 6 years I had a Logitech G930. Now the earpads are worn off and the mic breaks up sometimes.
Well, I guess I need a new one. 

After browsing all kind of reviews on Amazon and YouTube I need a break. But I'd like to know...


What are you guys and gals using? And would you buy it again?

Turtlebeach Z22. Works great for game audio and music. The earpads are fabric. However the thin covering on top isnt very sturdy and even with careful use its coming off showing the foam or whatever it is underneath. So eventually I suppose I will have to cut some color tape to fit and hope it will look decent and stick.

Goes without saying that if you get a good headset get a dedicated audio card. Much better than realtek.

best get a USB  headset to avoid motherboard issues  like Sammy  has  with Realtek , but I got no issues with onboard Realtek sound after clean install of their current drivers

Note: match 32bit or  64bit driver.  also unloads cpu with usb sound

     using  this

plantronics  rig500hd    good mic   only  issue not  made for wide headed an eye glass waer'ers  for ears get sore from pressure over long time

  you can't adjust plastic  tension  like the steel  head ban type

I only got onboard sound. But I thought I get the Sennheiser GSX 1000 with the new headphones. Should work too.

If you only use headphones then all you need is a good headphone amp. I got an Asus Xonar dgx on sale for 1/2 off and works just fine for me. So not high end but good for the price. Tho the software is a little old. Creative just came out with a new one and many love their products.
