Review of the best surround sound headphones for gaming

If you’re mainlining Windows, you’ll need one of the best PC headsets to see you through your adventures. While the vast majority of headsets are compatible with both desktop and console use, there are a number that cater more to their PC market. Whether that’s through sophisticated EQ software, wider surround sound support, inbuilt game presets, or higher-quality microphones there are plenty of extra features to look for. 

That doesn’t mean there are fewer options to choose from, though. In fact there are plenty of PC-dedicated headsets from brands like Razer, Corsair, Logitech, SteelSeries, and HyperX. That doesn’t make your job any easier, though. That’s why we’ve put the latest and greatest releases from all the biggest brands to the test. 

We’ve had hundreds of cups around our noggins by now, and we’re rounding up all our favorites right here. These aren’t just the most expensive or the most recognized models, though, we’re exploring the full price range and prioritizing value for money first and foremost. Naturally, the top PC headsets are also going to be some of the best gaming headsets across the market as a whole, so you’re well catered for if you do have a PS5 or Xbox Series X plugged into your setup as well.

If you don’t like the ‘locked in’ effect of traditional closed back headsets, the Virtuoso Pro is your best bet. It’s an open back design, but the stripped back features mean it’s not for everyone.

No built in mic

The Razer BlackShark V2 Pro leads the pack when it comes to a PC gaming headsets. Fantastic audio is accompanied by the best microphone we’ve ever tested in a gaming headset, and it’s all wrapped up in one of the most reliable designs the PC space has seen.

Buy it if:

✅ You play online regularly: The microphone on this headset is begging to be used regularly. If you’re constantly on comms, it’s a must-see.
✅ You also play on PS5: The split compatibility between PC and PS5 is going to come in particularly handy if you split your time between the two systems.
✅ You’re a competitive player: That mic, plus the excellent directional audio on offer here means this is a fantastic option for anyone who regularly plays competitively. 

Don’t buy it if:

⌠You also want a headset for commuting: There’s no ANC to these headphones, so if you’re looking to double up your use for music regularly we’d recommend looking elsewhere.
⌠You mostly play single player: There’s no point in paying for that high-end mic if you won’t use it. If you usually stick to single player games, something more dedicated to luxurious soundstages will be better. 

Design: From looks alone, it would be easy to confuse this latest release with any other in the BlackShark line. You’re still getting that helicoper pilot form factor that’s come to define the series, with Razer’s all-black matte paintjob to finish it off. That makes for a luxurious finish, complimented by the steel headband and memory foam cushions. We did notice that headband slipping slightly when put on, but it never got in the way of a match and stayed tight during our tester sessions. All in, though, this is a particularly comfortable headset worthy of staying on the noggin for hours at a time.

Features: The microphone is the star of this show – and the reason the BlackShark V2 Pro is held in such a high regard for online play. Razer has doubled the sampler rate from 16kHz in the previous model to 32kHz here. That makes for an incredibly clear, but still velvety rich voice profile. Our teammates were astounded at the quality here – not only does our chat stand out, but it’s podcast quality to boot. Throw in a 70 hour battery life and a wealth of EQ settings and you’ve got yourself a long-lasting, endlessly competitive PC headset. 

Audio: Between locating enemy gunfire and simply enjoying the breeze in Red Dead Redemption 2, we were impressed by the detail and clarity coming out of these drivers. This is truly fantastic audio, with a rich texture floating across everything from larger environments to more claustrophobic skirmishes. It’s not just games that benefit from this attention to detail, either – streaming and music also sound particularly strong. 

Verdict: Between long-lasting comfort in the design to onboard profiles to save settings directly to headset itself this is still a winner across the board. The reinvention of the 2023 classic has stormed onto the shelves, offering up one of the best PC gaming headsets we’ve seen so far.

Non-detachable microphone

The new Razer BlackShark V2 Hyperspeed packs quite the value. You’re getting largely the same audio and microphone experience as you would on the V2 Pro but stripping the price down to $129.99 / £129.99. Considering the TriForce Titanium drivers and ultra-wideband microphone on offer here, that sets the Hyperspeeds apart from the vast majority of this lower mid-range market. We previously held the Razer BlackShark V2 as the best PC headset for most players, but with a wireless connection and boosted mic capabilities, the Hyperspeed has taken over. 

Buy it if

✅ You prioritize high quality audio: If you’re going all in on audio without raising that price too high, the TriForce Titanium drivers on offer here are going to suit your needs perfectly.

✅ You play online multiplayer with chat: This headset has the same mic as the more premium Pro model (a device we praise as the best for online chat). 

✅ You primarily play on PC but split time with consoles: With a USB-A wired and wireless connection, this is a headset best suited for PC, but you’ll still be able to easily connect to consoles and still get great audio to boot.

Don’t buy it if

⌠You want a premium finish: If look and feel are particularly important, you’ll want to move further up the price scale for a more robust form factor. 

⌠You want a more portable design: If you’re taking your headset out on the road with you you might prefer a detachable microphone and a swivel on that headband so that the cups can lie flat or fold up.

Design: You’d be forgiven for getting this and any other headset in the BlackShark line mixed up at first glance. The overall silhouette and form factor is largely the same here, with a pilot style shape and those signature oval cups. However, Razer has made some tough calls here. In an effort to save space in the price tag for those luxury drivers, the brand has cut the build quality slightly. You’re getting a cheaper plastic construction compared to the Pros, with a more hollow feel. On top of that the breathable fabric of the Pro cups has been replaced with a leatherette – that’s not quite as durable, and is prone to flaking. However, comfort still remains solid even over longer sessions during our testing. 

Features: Connectivity is a key area of improvement for the Razer BlackShark V2 Hyperspeed. Not only are you getting 2.4GHz and Bluetooth connections (the previous V2 model was wired only), but the Hyperspeeds can also be plugged directly into your PC. That’s not something even the Pro model can do. Considering there’s a 70 hour battery life here you won’t be running out of juice too often, but if you do that USB connection is great to fall back on. 

On top of that, you’ll also find the larger volume dial on the side of the cup. This is easily one of our favorite features of the line overall, providing plenty of landing space for quick in-game volume adjustments. The Hyperspeed takes this a little further as well, with a textured surface for additional precision. 

Audio: Razer’s putting its TriForce Titanium drivers to work here, and they sound just as strong as they do in their Pro housing. Crystal clear detailing carries the mid and lower ranges, in an impressive display of sophisticated balancing across the entire soundstage. On top of that, there’s a satisfying level of precision to directional cues and a wide space to each game we tested in. The microphone is also the same as the Pro model, so its rich textured voice quality shines through in the Hyperspeed as well. 

Verdict: Wireless PC headsets rarely offer this level of audio and mic quality in this price range. However, in dropping some build features Razer has managed to stand out against a packed and often beige market. If you’re after an everyday headset that won’t let you down on chat or in solo adventures at home, this is your go-to.

The best budget PC headset

3. Razer Kraken V3 X

The best budget PC headset

Specifications

Acoustic design: Closed Back

Drivers: Razer TriForce 40mm drivers

Compatibility: PC, PlayStation

Reasons to buy

+

Brilliant 7.1 surround sound on PC

+

Comfy

+

Affordable

Reasons to avoid

–

Non-detachable mic

–

7.1 only on PC

–

Only USB connection

The Razer Kraken V3 X is a more affordable, high value for money entry point to the Kraken range.

Buy it if:

✅ You don’t want to break the bank: The Kraken V3 X is perfect for those after a well-respected name (and the audio pedigree it holds) without spending too much in the process.

✅ A wireless connection isn’t a necessity: This is a wired headset, which means you won’t be worrying about battery life. If you don’t need that cord-free connection you might as well save some cash with this budget option. 

✅ You prefer a more subtle design: Unlike the rest of the Kraken line, the V3 X feels a lot more subtle. That’s perfect for more professional use as well.

Don’t buy it if:

⌠You prioritize high quality audio: You’ll get far better audio quality further up the price scale, with the Kraken V3 X sounding a little tinny compared to other more expensive entries. 

⌠You need a 3.5mm connection: The USB only connection method is going to trip up anyone without a spare port, or those looking to double up as a console headset. 

Design: The Kraken X takes on a familiar profile, with the same rounded cup shape as its more expensive siblings. However, things feel more stripped back here – the cups themselves don’t jut out quite so far and the overall aesthetic is one of a more subtle experience. That’s perfect if you’re after an all-in-one device for a range of uses at and away from your gaming setup. 

Features: The headset has been refreshed to include the latest developments and enhancements that Razer has in its bag, but in particular, it’s the microphone and the drivers which get the most attention. Both features are upgraded to almost be in line with Razer’s top dog headset, the BlackShark V2: the microphone is the now Razer’s Hyperclear Cardioid mic, with greater speech pickup and noise cancellation. The mic is also an excellent upgrade, though it being non-detachable will irk some folks. However, for the price, this is an excellent gaming headset, particularly for those looking to get into the pc gaming headset game, and it features all the hallmarks of Razer’s audio excellence. Plus, the drivers are now Razer’s own excellent TriForce beasts, offering improvements across the sound spectrum.

Audio: In actual, everyday and gaming use, we found the sound excellent still, and the 7.1 still shines on PC – this is a PC-first gaming headset still – though it is a little tinnier than the top tier BlackShark headsets. You’re not getting the full bodied, richly detailed soundstages of something with a higher price tag, but considering this is an entry level addition to the range, bargain hunters will be pleased with the result. 

Verdict: The Razer Kraken V3 X enhances its predecessor in every way and takes advantage of some of the latest advancements that Razer can offer – and packages it into a value-busting proposition.

One of the most expensive premium headsets going

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro wireless is our favorite gaming headset overall, but where it shines brightest is in a split console and PC setup. That’s why it’s just been pipped to the top of this list by the more focused Corsair Virtuoso, but is still an excellent premium option.

Buy it if:

✅ You want to invest: The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro is one of the more expensive options on the market, but if you’re after an investment piece it will certainly go the distance. 

✅ You have a split PC and console setup: The ultra-connected hub means you can easily swap between PC and console on the fly without having to faff with physical dongles. That’s perfect for anyone with a console on their desk as well as a PC. 

✅ You play open world games: Of course, a range of genres sound excellent through these cups, but we were most impressed by the larger soundstages afforded to open world adventures. If this is your playstyle you’re going to be particularly pleased here. 

Don’t buy it if:

⌠You don’t play across multiple platforms: A lot of that starting price is baked into the multi-connection hub, which means anyone who won’t be making the most of it isn’t going to be getting the full value. 

⌠You don’t want to tinker with EQ settings: The hub is also fantastic for getting your sound balance just right – something we did need to do to get the best audio through these cups. If you’re after an easier plug and play device you can head further down the price range. 

Design: While the Nova Pro does speak the same design language as cheaper options in its range, the oblong shaped cups, comfortable ski-style headband, and premium build quality throughout means it feels all the more premium. We noted it looked and felt more like a set of high-end headphones than a PC headset in our initial testing, though you’ll still find plenty of controls onboard. Everything feels slick, secure, and subtle though – perfect if you’re after an all-in-one headset for work, play, and commuting. 

Features: The Arctis Nova Pro is stunning in this wireless format. That’s because of the handy hub in the box. This base station provides all manner of excellent features, but being able to quickly switch between a wireless connection to your console and your PC is an invaluable tool for anyone running both together. No more faffing with dongles and wires, your next system is just one click away. 

We’re banging on about the hub, but it really does take this already excellent PC headset even further. There’s one more trick up its sleeve, and it comes in the form of battery. You can slot one battery pack into the side of the hub itself to keep it permanently charging – open up the side of the Nova Pro cup and you’ll find another to hotswap easily. That’s a remarkable feature meaning you’ll never run out of juice again. It’s so simple, we couldn’t believe nobody had done it before. 

Audio: Of course, the Arctis Nova Pro wireless is doing far more than that to achieve its status. Any fan of high-end headsets will know that SteelSeries offers some of the best audio in the business, and they’ve doubled down for the new generation. We’ve always loved the SteelSeries sound signature, but have lamented the lack of bass ranges in previous releases. SteelSeries has well and truly delivered with phenomenal sound here – well-rounded, rich audio paired with excellent balancing and attention to even the most precise of details across the board. Not only that, but heading back to that hub, you can adjust all EQ settings without having to load into any complex software. 

Verdict: Yes, this is a luxury headset, so the price point is going to put some off. However, if you are mixing it up between console and PC it’s well worth investing in a headset that will serve each.

*Really* disappointing microphone

–

Much more expensive than a lot of wireless competitors that do have good mics

The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless is an extraordinary PC headset for gaming headset and does earn a place on this guide – but it is also a frustrating set; stumbling with one feature that could have really made it a world-beater.

Buy it if:

✅ You prioritize battery life: You’re not going to do much better than 300 hours. If you’re after a fantastic sounding headset that won’t die on you too often, this is it. 

✅ You stick to single player: The microphone is really holding this headset back, but if you don’t need to use it this is a win-win. 

Don’t buy it if:

⌠You regularly play online with chat: If you do rely on a microphone on your headset, we’d avoid the HyperX Cloud Alpha wireless. The quality here isn’t worth the trade off for its battery life. 

Design: The design and build are classic, quality HyperX too: a simple black and red design with sturdy arching frames for each cup, and a solid and comfortable headband between the two. And the buttons are simple and restrained too – just a volume wheel on one cup, and the mic port, mic mute, power button, and charging port on the other.

Features: The battery life is the main feature here though, and the thing that all the marketing around this headset banged on about – claiming up to 300 hours of battery life, no less. And, I have to say that I have come to believe that claim wholeheartedly: after 110 hours I have had to give up counting just to move on with my life, while the chap in the earcups tells me it has gone down to only 70%. It really is remarkable and a big selling point for the set.

However, the big caveat with this headset is that I found the mic to be really quite bad. Covering all of what you don’t want from a microphone – muffled audio to my friends, crackling, inconsistent volume, and indistinct clarity – at times I was having to basically put it in my mouth to be heard. 

Audio: The sound quality is incredibly good, no matter you throw at it. From game’s to music, to TV, the Cloud Alpha Wireless’s audio shone and excelled. It will have your back whatever you play from the busiest of chaotic shooters to the quietest meanders through open-world landscapes, and everything in between. I was particularly impressed with the clarity of each and every detail of the audio too, from booming weapons to the tweeting of birds. The headset even proved to be excellent for music and TV and film in our testing too which is a great bonus.

Verdict: If you don’t play much, or any, online games that require communication, then you might just find an unbelievable headset for your needs here.

Mids are slightly flattened

Open back devices haven’t graced the ranks of the best PC headsets in a long time, but the Corsair Virtuoso Pro has a solid premise. This is one for streamers or those with a quiet gaming space, but if you’re after a super natural audio quality and no stuffy sidetone it’s a winner. 

Buy it if

✅ You’re a streamer: The open back design means streamers won’t have to worry about annoying sidetone or mic monitoring sounds during gameplay. 

✅ You prioritize audio quality over features: The Virtuoso Pro is limited in its extra features, but it prioritizes supreme audio quality instead – if you do too you’re onto a winner here. 

✅ You have a dedicated gaming space: That open back design means sound leaks in both directions – you’ll need a secluded gaming spot for full immersion.

Don’t buy it if

⌠A wireless connection is a priority: Not only is this a wired connection but it’s a particularly fiddly one if you’re swapping a mic in and out of your session. 

⌠You play in a busier environment: We’d recommend a headset with noise isolation (or at least a closed back design) if you’re playing in a louder space.

Design: The Corsair Virtuoso Pro has a particularly eye-catching design. The flatter cups are adorned with super slick grill areas (hiding a neat little logo easter egg in the center). This is a departure from the chunkier form factor we’re used to seeing with the RGB Wireless XTs at the top of our list, but it’s still an aesthetic that could certainly be mistaken for a high end set of headphones. The build quality is also solid – as it has to be for such a lightweight device. Aluminum runs throughout the construction, with firm cushioning supporting each cup. 

Features: This being a standard wired open back PC headset, there’s no power functions to speak of. That means onboard controls are non-existent (you’ll be relying on your PC or gaming keyboard’s volume controls here) and there’s no customization or preset options either. The Pros are set up to work alongside Corsair’s Wave XLR microphone control pad, though, so streamers are sorted for mixing. 

Everyday players might struggle with this feature set, though. Going from the control-packed PC headsets we usually test to this more barebones approach was tough during testing, and the need to swap cables when going from a mic session to a solo adventure was frustrating as well. 

Audio: An open back PC headset like this lives and dies by its audio, and while the Virtuoso Pro keeps things minimal elsewhere it absolutely shines in its soundstage. Across Starfield and even more competitive titles we noticed a particularly natural sound quality here, with exquisite detailing and a robust sense of direction. Graphene drivers are pushing this audio quality forward, but in combination with the open back design this is a particularly pleasing experience. 

Verdict: The Corsair Virtuoso Pro suits a more niche market – namely streamers, or those who have the sound proofing and space to go all in on a natural, breezy soundstage. Audio quality is the main draw here, so if you can forego the usual additional extras this is a fantastic pick.

How we test

We test gaming headsets almost every day, constantly thinking about what it takes for them to be considered one of the best PC headsets for gaming out there – the lucky few make this list. Each member of this esteemed club has good sound quality and is comfortable for those longer playing sessions. Some offer more features and better audio than others, but usually, that bump in quality comes with a bump in price too. 

It’s easy to get hung up on stats like frequency response, range, and the size of the drivers inside each headset, but there’s no real substitute for putting the headset on and seeing how it performs with actual games. That’s what we do. We test headsets in online shooters, to see how the surround sound performs, and we test in epic single-player games to see how the music comes through. We test with shooters for the depth of the bass, and RPGs to see how rich the dialogue is. Finally, we look at the price and decide whether or not you’re getting actual value (and not just buying an overpriced headset). 

You can find out more about how we test gaming headsets on the full GamesRadar+ Hardware Policy.

Best PC gaming headset: FAQ

What is the best headset for gaming on a PC?

Everyone will have their favourite PC gaming headset but there really isn’t one that can be pointed to for 100% of users and needs. The best headset for PC we’ve tested so far is the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro, but it’s not going to fit all uses. 

However, it’s best to think about what you need from a headset, and the pieces will start to fall into place. For example, when you start drawing lines in terms of price tag, you’ll start to get closer to the best headset for you, and then you can make calls like going wireless or staying wired, which features are must-haves, and so on. This is the way to find the best headset for gaming on a PC, for you.

Which PC headset brand is the best?

The PC gaming headset market is a rich and diverse, and very full, one. As a result, and because a lot of brands have been going at this for a while, there really isn’t just one brand that sits above the rest for everyone.

However, plenty of brands are perennially reliable and excellent, and you can barely go wrong with anything from them. The likes of Razer, Astro, SteelSeries, Corsair, Sennheiser (now EPOS), and HyperX are all favourites with lots of gamers for good reasons. And while each will be slightly different, and offer slightly different features and audio executions, they will all fit differently due to build and comfort, price, and flexibility. Be aware of exactly what you need when you start off and you’ll soon whittle it down.

Is a wired or wireless headset better for gaming?

Back in the day, even the best wireless gaming headsets couldn’t keep up with game audio. That meant high latencies, missed shots, and late directional cues. With the super-fast 2.4GHz connections we have today, though, those issues are all ironed out. These days the speed difference between a wired and wireless connection is negligible – though if you’re a pro playing competitively you might still prefer the reliability of a wired cable. While casual players won’t notice the difference in connections, though, the choice between a wired or wireless PC headset comes down to battery and comfort preferences. 

After all, playing on a PC means you don’t have to worry so much about cable length when at your desk (and you can take advantage of USB-connecting headsets). That means you might prefer a wired headsets to avoid having to charge the device, especially if you don’t mind having an extra wire on the desk. 

If, however, you plan on using your headset as a regular set of headphones when out and about – or you want to connect to other devices without tethering – wireless is the way to go. 

What headsets do pro gamers use?

Most of the biggest brands and manufacturers are represented at the top of the esports table – Logitech, Razer, EPOS, and more are all present among the top teams. But such is the accessibility and sometimes downright affordability of the top sets, looking at what the pros use and aiming to replicate that has actually never been easier; the gap between everyday gamers and the pros is not as wide as some might think.
