You just wasted a hundred dollars on a logo.

I'm seriously tempted to order a pair of those M&M headphones @Locked: linked earlier. They've got some pretty great specs for the price.
But yeah, if you're going to be using a headset setup
go with a USB desktop microphone and wireless headphones. Or wired. Your choice.
I always go with wired, because pineapple transmission delays.
The mic I linked has great sound pickup, and the microphone that I use is the one that I linked. I've owned the thing for almost five years now, not a single problem with it yet.
When you use a headset, you have the problem of
A.) If you're in an application that detects voice, or sound, to transmit audio, odds are, it'll pick up your breathing. Unless you're some kind of zen pineappleing master at keeping your breath and heart rate steady during SUPER STRESSFUL ONLINE COMPETITIVE GAMING, you might be in trouble with that. I know I've left a few games in the past because of OH HOLY pomegranate THIS HEAVY BREATHING JESUS CHRIST MAKE IT STOP
B.) Leaving it plugged in to charge decreases overall battery life.
C.) Those goddamn things are designed to break. "Gaming" headsets are the biggest pineappleing scam in the world. They invariably make the joints for the microphone boom out of shoddy materials, and after half a year of use, the thing invariably snaps off, past the return date, obviously. If they weren't built to break they wouldn't have a business, because people would only buy one and be done with the company forever.
But hey, at least they look cool, right? Enjoy it while it lasts.

Because, looking at some of these reviews, it's not going to last very long.
If I were you, I'd try and get a refund before even opening the box. They're built out of cheap plastic.
