Recommended headset for around 100$

I would be using the onboard sound and not a sound card. My motherboard is a ROG Maximus VII with SupremeFX audio. I am playing games like bf4 and other first person shooters so I heard that something with 7.1 channels will be better than a head phone with 5.1 channels. I know basically nothing about audio so what headset do you guys recommend within this price range and why.

Never get a sound card unless it's external.

Your best bet will be this headset: http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Wireless-Gaming-Headset-Surround/dp/B003VANOFY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1402270592&sr=8-2&keywords=logitech+wireless+headset

Reason: It's wireless so no cables to fuss around with.
Surround sound is kind of placebo market but just in case this headset can simulate 7.1, so big drivers !

To clarify, the amount of "surround sound" a headset can simulate does not mean it's better or worse. Any pair of headphones or speakers can simulate surround sound (look up Virtual Barber Shop on YouTube).

Good luck!

Thanks, Ive been eyeing that headset but just wasn't sure if it was good or got. I do not plan on using a sound card and wireless will add a nice touch to it.
