I've bought nothing but gaming headsets from around 2004 onwards and have always paid a fairly high price for each pair as I tend to research the best available pairs. I bought some Roccat Kave's and they were very good, very comfortable with what seemed like brilliant sound.
But... And it's a big "But". I read some reviews online regarding a new pair after my mic packed in on the Roccat Kave's and viewed this video...
I bit and bought a pair of Samson SR850 (newest version of those in the video) and was astounded with the difference they made, not just in gaming, but for music production and audio overall on my PC. The difference was unreal.
I paired it with a Zalman clip-on mic which cost about £6.50 on Amazon and had a headset that simply blew everything else I'd ever used away for around just shy of £35 delivered.
It's worth considering this option the next time you're tempted to buy a new gaming headset.
Apologies for the long-winded post, but I think it's important since I myself had been caught up in the "Gaming Headset" marketing garb. This is a deal website after all.
I hope this helps!
Wait for a black friday event.....I brought mine for £69.99 from Currys.
This is a gaming headset.

Black friday.......see date
Wait till November, that's a long way off if you need a new headset now.
