PC Gaming Headset

Hi. I play simracing so i'm after, i think, a surround headset. I'm happy with wireless as long as I can use it whilst it's being charged over USB? I'd like a mic.

The Razer stuff looks good but i'm unsure on the different versions.

Thank you.

Depending on your budget and if you have not already got yourself a headset, here are a few suggestions: Midrange Price £60-£100 - Roccat Elo Air (Wireless) or Elo (USB), Corsair Void Elite (Wireless or USB). Higher End £100+ Roccat Syn Pro Air (Wireless), Corsair HS80 (Wireless or Wired) Any of the EPOS (Sennheiser Gaming Brand).

Thank you. Still looking. I have borrowed a pair of Logitech G432. I guess these are entry level? Using them there’s nothing that’s impressing me?

These are mid range around £80

It gives me something to compare them against if I buy some higher quality ones. Thank you.

Poor ones must be incredibly underwhelming!

I've had a pair of £20 headset 6 years ago. Wasn't to bad. The difference between a £10 headset and a £20 headset is very noticeable. Going from £20 to £50 is about as noticeable again then £50 to £100. From £100 onwards your getting into audiophile area when you wont notice that big of a difference between £100 and £200.

Thank you.

For some reason the Arctis Wireless Nova Pro for Xbox is about £35 cheaper than the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. They appear identical. Will the XBOX one wortk on PC?
