I already ordered the Arctis 7 on Amazon on impulse just a few minutes ago before i started comparing these few lol. So the faster the recommendations the better so i can cancel the order and change if needed. either way its okay lol.

OR HyperX Cloud Revolver S? I'd rather have wireless though.. What do you guys think? Any other recommendation like this? looking for a gaming headset i can use with my gaming laptop when im at my girlfriends gaming in bed lol..

Ive scoured googles top results for "best gaming headphones" and it just doesnt feel as gratifying as a nice response from a member of Head-Fi if you know what I mean. I'm just looking for a headset I can use with my gaming laptop when i am at my girlfirnds house, plain and simple. I would like...

idk much about DAC's. If its USB that means the speakers wouldnt be using the soundcard at all right? would a amp work too?

Actually I didn't mean to include the sound card in my budget that was just a separate side note haha, oops. So with that in mind any other headphone suggestions? How do the Q701's compare to the HD558's or even the 598's? For competitive gaming would these just be completely overkill?   How...
