Are they comfortable, my current set is destroying my ears after 30minute session.

I have the Hyper X 2's are they are superb! My ears do get a little sore after prolonged periods but I have big ears and wear glasses which won't help 
other than that though I can't really fault them.

Best Headphones I have used for games, films, music are the AKG 550s got mine for just under £100

AKG 240mkii are pretty good and well under £100 you could probably get a mod mic for them if you need a mic for TS etc, i used them for a long time (do music prodcution also) then I forked out for the K712 pro's as they are much better for studio work, still use them for gaming also, but they are well out of your £100 price range
All the HyperX Cloud headsets have wiring issues and yes I also have had them for a couple of years, but I needed to open it up to fix the wiring problem, but it's not hard to fix. What I would like to know is if there is another headset for roughly the same cost that offers better quality/sound? ty

Went looking around a bit more and came up with 2 possible backups or alternatives, though HyperX still seems to be best overall:

Also: Here is a good clip on how to fix your headset, which I think is far better to salvage if possible than buying a new one. The most common problem is a broken wire, which is real easy to fix and this link to the Youtube clip explains things well enough for anybody to follow:

After some headphones for around £70......
Any suggestions please......
Do you have a soundcard?
Most headsets are garbage, but there are some good deals around within your price, such as the Sennheiser PC350 which can be had for £79 if you shop around.
Found a headset that will be more than a match for any other for a good price:
Asus RoG Strix Wireless Gaming Over-Ear Headphones

Are you going to wear them in public? Fugly as hell.
I like that you can have it wireless if you want and as I already had the HyperX before, I wanted to give this a go and see how it turns out.

i would get from place where you can easily return those without incurring charges. Usually gaming headsets are not that great but I can be mistaken with this one.
You never know.

Can't tell if serious?
Really?
Must be a billion headsets out there with roughly the same specs (or not), but for me I wanted to try something else and it's not the end of
the world if they fall apart after a couple years.
