The cheap ist for those who seek a fine headset that is also cheap compared to others. The next is also a finde headset but is also popular. Last but not least, is the superb headset that is extremely satisfying but also comes with a higher price.
The cheap: Logitech G430 7.1
The Logitech G430 7.1 headset is an extremely popular choice among gamers. It has over 5000 customer reviews on Amazon and almost 800 answered questions.

The popular: HyperX Cloud Stinger
One of the most popular gaming headsets is the HyperX Cloud Stinger. It has over 2600 customer reviews and offers one of the best performance under 50.
Advantages
- Most of the parts are plastic, but it’s very well molded and looks great
- Very comfortable to wear for hours on end. They give enough pressure so that you can hear well, but not so much that it squeezes my head and causes me to sweat
- The speakers are surprisingly good. Certainly not audiophile headphones, but the speakers have a very wide range, and respond to both bass and treble very well
- Mic quality is again rather good for the price
Disadvantages
- On-ear volume adjuster could be could be of better quality. As you adjust the volume, it does not adjust evenly on both sides. Then again, the ear adjuster is mainly for a bit of fine-tuning on the fly. If possible, leave the ear slider wide open and adjust predominately on your device.
- Headphones fit type:Over-Ear
- Lightweight headset (275 gram) with 90-degree rotating ear cups provide a snug fit that conforms to your head.50 millimeter directional drivers for audio precision enjoy the full audioscape of your favorite games
