Fyi (if anyone didn't say this already), the dt770/80 doesn't need an amp with the x-fi xtrememusic sound card. I had this exact combo, and it was a great setup for gaming. I didn't test it out with CS:S, but I did try playing CS:S with the dt880's, and it was great, so I don't think the dt770 would be too far behind. As far as gaming quality goes with the dt770's, I was being called a wallhack all the time with them. And as mentioned above, the dt770's are very comfortable.
Well, after reading around a bit I decided that I don't NEED closed headphones seeing as I don't play at lan's and I am not a bass head. (Although I do like not being able to hear my roommates, but I think an open headphone turned up will suffice) That being said, I went and pulled the trigger on the AD900's, for the better soundstage and much-much better music listening (or so forum'ers say). A bit more bass/isolation just doesn't make up for the loss in music quality and comfort (velour pads ftw) Hopefully I made a good choice, we'll see.
