Razer tiamat 7,1 is great and the Asus Strix 7,1 is great both have great mics and are big and comfy but you have to check the prices because i have no Clue on that part as i live on Norway

The G633 is decent, tends to have problems with the mic sometimes.
But i would say its great for the price well at least when i bought them for $89.99.
Those aren't bad, i would recommend those if your not looking towards the Siberia Elites.

I have a a pair of Sennheiser G4me zero headphones that are amazingly comfortable. The sound is what you'd expect from sennheiser and the mic is fantastic. Best gaming headset for the money in my opinion.

In general the combination of headphones and a seperate microphone will give you both better headphone and microphone quality. I suggest you pick a headphone that you like and add a modmic: http://www.modmic.com/ If you want a detailed guide on this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnJoN5zBFEg

If you are looking specifically for a Headset and don't want anythign else I suggest either Sennheiser PC 360 G4ME (I owned one until I replaced them recently, great headphones and an OK mic.) or the newer Sennheiser Game Zero or Game One.
