Roughly the same price, far better construction, much better audio quality. You'll be hearing things much better than before.

Are they any good with movies/music or just gaming?

Those things will absolutely be better than the tiamat headset for music and movies. If you don't mind losing the mic, there are several cheaper but good headphones from several companies (including sennheiser)

I dont really need the mic, if thats what ups the price, is there any other cheaper ones?

You can always go with one of these:

Those are usually the most recommended ones for a reasonable price, and all are sure to give you better sound quality than integrated audio codecs can output. I put a few at every point in the price range from $50 to $110, and mixed up open and closed back solutions. If your use area is somewhat noisy (not so quiet computer, loud neighbors, etc), you should consider closed back options, but if your area is quiet then open types will sound "larger".
