Gaming headphones for X99 ud5

[chrlscharley]

I have a gigabyte X99 ud5 MOBO and i was wondering what some good gaming headphones would be for it. Budget $300-400 for headphones. I already have the QC15's and was wondering if there was anything better in that sort of price range. I would like some surround sound. I play games such as far cry 3, skyrim, watchdogs, witcher. The headphones don't need to have a mic.

I would recommend getting these Sennheiser's. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B009FHFFIG/thewire06-20
They're extremely high quality and you should use Razer Surround software to get surround (That's all most surround headphones are, just software based) and use the extra money to get a Headphone Dac and Amp combo to get off your on-board audio like this one
