So, my cheap headset, as well as my onboard sound have been inciting my wrath lately. So what did I do? Why get an soundblaster audigy (sound card) and a very nice 200Watt 3-piece sound system.
Edit: I'm just going to wait on the video card. Lots of new stuff is coming out and I don't want to be screwed.

I decided to splurge and got a hold of the Razer Barracuda HP-1 5.1 Surround Sound Headset. They were not cheap but given the comfort, and features it was well worth it.

Alright I will give you the rundown. These headphones fricking rock. They are impressive and after a long use of say 5+ hours your ears will hurt, but they are no comparison to Sennheiser headphones which are the godlike heaven for the ears. These were designed for gaming and I must say paired with an audigy 2 ZS and some tweaking, wow! I am hearing things I havent heard before and am saying holy crap many times over because you hear things you wouldnt normally hear. Even though it isnt like a true surround sound setup, you really feel like your hearing it from behind. One qualm I do have is the changing out of 4.1 to 5.1 to surround for the various games. But oh boy, it is really worth it. Unless you have a high end card like an audigy you wont do the headset justice. Remember though, this thing is not meant to replace a "True" Surround sound setup. These are for people who go to lan's, possibly not able to setup a good surround sound speaker setup or other things.
