What's better /v/? A headset with a mic or a desktop mic with a separate headset?
>a headset
>not earbuds or surround sound
The latter, always.
Turtle beach, bro. It's like picture perfect audio. Oops it broke.
>>334727640
where do you even put it? it just gets in the way
A headset is fine if you don't care about audio quality that much.
Otherwise separate. Don't ever buy the super expensive headsets because they're never worth it.
>>334727704
>earbuds
Are you retarded?
Same shits. I bought separate stuffs like people suggested but there isn't much difference.
Mic+phones have better quality but headset is more practical. Your call.
>>334727640
>buys a desktop microphone
>literally everything gets picked up
>>334727640
I bought a modmic and am disappointed with the quality. I also have a desktop I just dont like my voice to change based on proximity. Any recommendations on good headset mics/headsets?
Also to op separate headphones and separate mic is FAR better. A Google search would have shown you this very quickly, most "headsets" are garbage compared to standalone headphones.
I use a yeti and sennheiser 598s and it is a very good combo. The 598s are very comfortable and good headphones.
>>334727640
If you don't stream go for the headset. It's cheaper and more practical.
>>334727704
>earbuds
>surround sound
How to spot a complete normie pleb.
>>334727993
that's what microphones are designed to do, anon
le gaming headets are trash
they all have bad mics and most of them have bad audio as well
get some good headphones and an okay mic
even an okay mic is better than the shit they slap on to gaming headsets

This is only a problem if you live with your mother

how is this even a question?
>>334727640
I have a Sennheiser PC 363D. It's perfect. Make sure to use the USB sound card it comes with, otherwise your microphone will sound like shit.
>Wired headset
Too much of a pain having to take it off and put it back on every 20 minutes to get up and smoke a bowl and/or pee pee in the piss bottle
>>334729227
>usb sound cards
>onboard sound cards
>using any of the two while caring about sound quality
never
fucking
ever
do
that
>>334727640
ill ask first
>why do you need a mic?
>>334729620
Onboard sound cards are fine these days.
Especially if you have a good mobo
>>334729416
>get up to smoke
>get up to pee or take a shit
You casual... GET GUD.
>>334727640
Anyone who speaks on micson PCare a shitty MLG tryhard cunts 99.99% of the time that contributes nothing but noise pollution to your gaming experience.
>>334729713
no.
Sennheiser HD580
Blue Yeti Microphone
With proper adjustment, >>334727993 isn't really an issue. You have to use Push to talk as well as have a reasonable enclosed space (and set to the right waveform)
Having a nice, open headset is crucial too. You aren't isolated, and you get good quality.
>usb mics
XLR or go fuck yourself.
>>334727884
>tripfag
Are you retarded?
>>334728379
>>334729775
Yes. They are. That mentality is outdated as fuck.
If you want to waste your money on a placebo card be my guest, but the person who doesn't need a sound card for ports and actual audio related work or music stuff is just throwing money away.
>>334727640
I've had this logitech g330 for a few years and it still works great
>Sony MDR 7506 + a Zalmann-clip
There you go faggot. Shit costs like $110 + shipping
>>334729773
This. How am I supposed to focus on the game when some faggot is sperging out on TS high on Red Bull giving everyone a running commentary on every thought going through his head.
>>334727704
>not using surround sound headset
>Get desk mic
>every single click and keyboard stroke is picked up, but i have to put my audio through a compressor for my voice to be loud enough
WHY DOES IT PICK UP MY MOUSE CLICKS AND CHAIR SQUEAKING BUT MY VOICE ISN'T LOUD ENOUGH???
>>334729846
Love how the idiot that talks about earbuds with terrible sound space only had this as a retort.
You all might be new to 4chan so let me point something out to you.
"Tripfags" have been a thing longer than you, deal with it newfaggots.
>>334729981
>i'm fucking retarded
oh i'm sorry :,(
>>334728803
Dumb tripcuck.
>>334730179
That's not an argument you fucking retard.
>>334727640
If you're serious about audio and sound quality, skip the Yeti and other USB mics entirely.
>>334727640
headsets with mics are trash
get some good sennheiser/audio technica headphones or something and a desktop mic
if picking up too much background noise is an issue then use noisegator for stuff like skype
>>334730309
>he doesn't know how to argue
>>334727640
> Desktop mic and wireless headset
I don't know why I haven't done this before.
>>334727993
lol not smart enough to adjust the mic.
>Get a decent pair of headphones
>Stick a lapel mic to it with blu tac
Tell me how retarded I am.
MMX 300 is great for a headset
Get a headset if you're tight on space. Else get a standalone mic.
