Hello

I have just received a pair of HD599 which is an upgrade from my hyperx cloud (original) headset.

Currently this is being paired with a Asus Xonar DGX 5.1, obviously this new setup has no mic so am I right in thinking my goto should be a modmic or v-moda boom mic? I have no want for a standalone yeti style one :)

Would I see any benefit from replacing the Xonar? I was looking at a g6 but was not sure.

I have a tomahawk b450 max board and only play fps games. Currently MW.

Any opinions welcome

Creative's binaural simulation/HRTF algorithm would be certainly upgrade from old Dolby Headphone of that old Xonar.
If you have even used that Dolby Headphone...
I can certainly understand if you have disabled it.
Listening Dolby Headphone game recordings first time was quite shocking experience compared to expectations based on all Dolby hype.

Many thanks for taking the time to reply, I had forgotten about the dolby option and tested it tonight with the HD599s, sounded like I was inside a tunnel or bubble. Not sure if that is COD or the card or both :)

I assume that a g6 would replace the requirement for the Xonar? Would there be a better or alternative to the g6 that might be recommended?
