Hey everyone! I'm in the market for a decent gaming headset that won't break the bank—something in the $30-$40 range. It definitely needs to have a microphone since I play games like Valorant and Minecraft. Any suggestions? Thanks a bunch!

Check out the Logitech G435 LIGHTSPEED Wireless! It's received good reviews within that price point. Just keep in mind that while the sound and mic won't be top-notch, they're pretty decent for what you're spending.
A lot of people have praised the HyperX Cloud headset if you're looking for something popular within that budget, but some think it's overrated for what you pay. Still, it should work well for both Valorant and Minecraft!
You really can't go wrong with brands like Turtle Beach and Skullcandy! They have some solid options at that price.
Honestly, I wouldn't rush into buying a 'gaming' headset. They tend to exaggerate bass and can have misleading surround sound. You might find better value if you look for used headphones like Audio-Technica M40 or M50s on platforms like Facebook Marketplace, though they don't come with a mic.
Totally agree with you on that!
Yeah, the built-in mics on those audio headphones often don’t cut it. My Sennheiser HD350 mic is pretty much useless.
Not always true, though—there are hits and misses with Turtle Beach.
