So I'm looking for a great set of headphones that would be used in Arma 3 and games like it. Like to where when someone shoots and the sound is audible in-game, that I would be able to pinpoint exactly where that shot came from. I can't find anything online and the computer I bought is still being shipped at the moment and I want to be ready for when it gets here. I won't have a SPDIF plug on the computer so optical cable based headphones are out of the market unless they come with a USB based sound card for it. If anyone out there has any ideas on a headset with a mic on it feel free to throw it in here. I am not rich nor do I have money to throw around but, I'd say a max of $350 would be ok. Thanks to anyone that helps out.
What you'd need is a good sound card or DAC and as for a headsetĀ I'd recommend the Steelseries Siberia V2 they are awesome andĀ mic is pretty good too, as for a soundcard I use the Creative Sound Blaster 3D Recon I find a Dedicated PCI-e soundcard work a lot better than a USB headset I'd recommend that card. I've used that setup for a while now and it works and it should come in well under budget.
Hope this helps.
