Fairly cheap headset for games

My wifes just got into Apex Legends but the old pair of Sennheisers she uses had broken and crackle.
She wants a new pair, nothing expensive.
I've got no idea where to start, shes got all Razer peripherals so maybe one of their ones?
Also heard a lot of good things about the HyperX ones

The HyperX are OK, but they have shortcomings (mic is a bit meh, cable is a bit short on the Cloud 2).

These days, I'd probably go Logitech (G433, G533, G633?). But all I know are the HyperX Cloud 1/2, and the old Logitech Artemis 933 which is OK, actually.

Nothing that is a sure-fire recommendation.

Might still look into those HyperX ones, neither of us use our mics much.
It’s just because our PCs are in the living room where people watch tv, so something with alright sound for cheap price will be ideal

Went for the HyperX Cloud Alphas

I think you will like them. Hope the leather pads are better than the Clouds. Could never get used to them, but thankfully, the added cloth pads are really good.
