I have the Gamecom 780's and the mic quality was pretty good. I haven't had any experience with the others, but the Cloud II's are pretty popular. My friend had the G430's and the mic quality was not very good..

Are the 788 comfortable?I have a big head and my ears were hurting when i used the Kraken 7.1 whick I gotta say it s garbage for that price

The 780 are not terrible, but after awhile they get uncomfortable. If you want comfort, the Cloud II are probably a better choice.

You know, gaming headphones are rarely "comfortable" when compared to some mainstream headphone brands. I would go for a nice pair of Sennheiser headphones and a desk mic for chat. You end up spending a tad more, but you get better quality in both your mic and headphones in terms of quality and comfort.

Gaming headphones are all about flashy LED's and brand names. You don't need all the extra doodads they try to push off for an extra $80 on their $5 drivers.

I ve also thought about getting them separately.Is Zalman zm 1 mic good enough?Or should i get the samson go mic?Suggest me some mics then...

I'd go with something like the eBerry plug and play, or at least something similar. Ideally a free standing microphone you can point in the direction you choose. I find it more convenient than having one strapped to my head

G430 has an firmware update that made the mic sound a lot better. Its on the logitech site (obvious)
