Looking for a gaming headset

[Isaac_1999]

I am looking for a gaming headset, will be using it for league of legends and mmorpgs
razer kraken 7.1 chroma
steelseries siberia v2 frost blue
plantronics rig
plantronics rig flex
plantronics gamecom 788
Which of the above is better and is there any other recommendation within $200?

Don't bother with any of those, you'll get inferior sound. Instead, consider getting the modmic (~$50) and one of these (no particular order):
ATH-50X
MDR-7506
HD 558
HD 280 Pro
SR80e
ATH-AD500X
ATH-A500X

Or if you prefer integrated, the G4ME ONE or ZERO.

Note that LoL and mmorpgs don't really need great positional audio, and you could even get something far cheaper like HD518/HD429 or ATH-30x and a modmic and probably come in under $100 while not losing out on anything.

What about hyperx cloud 2?

Some people say it's fine for games (and nothing else), but probably half the mentions of that headphone on this forum are about that thing breaking (mic not working, headband falling apart, etc). If you're going to spend more than $50 on headphones, make sure you get ones that are actually worth their price.

The main problem is I cant get those headphones that you've mentioned, i am living in malaysia and here the choices are less.
And thank you for your advice.

http://www.priceme.com.my/Audio-Technica-ATH-M40X/p-889582587.aspx , only ~350 RM, well within your ~$200 budget, and the M50X is ~700RM, again under $200
