Best Gaming Headsets 2019 for PC (Low-End)

Corsair HS50 10 Best Headsets for Gaming

The Corsair HS50 is the best low-end PC headset you can find today due to it’s great-sounding 50mm drivers, solid build quality and easy-to-use capabilities. Simply plug it into your PC’s audio jack and you’ll be set.

There aren’t any special equalizer software programs to install, no calibrations to be made — it’s good to go out of the box. Now, because this product is a mere $40 on Amazon, you shouldn’t be expecting a life changing audio experience when you begin playing your games.

This is stereo which means no surround sound or any form of 3D audio, but its two 50mm drivers will create a high-impact audio display for most games, especially shooters. With an average of 3.5 out of 5 on Amazon with over 700 reviews, if you’re looking to improve your audio at a low cost, we can’t recommend these enough.

Best Mid-Tier Headset for PC

HyperX Cloud Flight

10 Best Headsets for Gaming

The HyperX Cloud Flight is the most tried-and-true headset on this PC list and that’s because it packs a $300-like audio experience into a package that won’t cost you more than $150. This wireless headset boasts an impressive 30-hour battery life, highly flexible ear cups, a detachable mic and some cool lighting effects.

While that’s all great, it’s what is inside it that really shines. With extremely clear highs and mids, the only thing this headset could do better is in the lows. While bullets whirring past your face will sound great, as will the sound of Scorpion punching Sub-Zero, a grenade exploding could sound better with just a tad more bass.

To get that kind of bass, though, you’re going to need to pay more. For $150 on Amazon with an average of 4 stars out of 5 after over 500 reviews, this is the best gaming headsets in 2019 for PC in the mid-tier range.

Best High-End Headset for PC

SteelSeries Arctis Pro 10 Best Headsets for Gaming

The SteelSeries Arctic Pro might be the best headset you can buy for gaming on your PC. It might also be the most expensive one you can buy too.

This headset features one of the best build qualities of any audio device in video games with a nice mix of aluminum alloy and soft cushion for your ears and comes packed with some incredible drivers for your ears. The speakers within are capable of frequencies as low as 10 Hz and as high as 40,000 Hz which means that for the purposes of gaming, there isn’t a sound in a game’s file that this headset won’t produce with extreme clarity.

On top of its great audio, it comes with a battery that can last up to 20 hours and the package includes an additional battery that’s quite easy to swap in. For $300 on Amazon with an average of 4.5 stars out of 5 after over 1000 reviews, if your audio budget has no limit, this is the one you need.
