I am in need for a new headset. I will be using a laptop (Y500) which has a jack for mic and a jack for speakers.
I don't care too much about sound quality I just want to be able to communicate with friends while playing without a constant static noise.
I do have a pair of ATH-m50s and have considered getting a modmic for it... but I think I would prefer to get a headset with one built in.
One of my biggest issues is my ears get very warm with the leather pads of the m50s.
I would like to keep it under $100 and the two headsets I was looking at the most were the steelseries siberia v2 ($90) and the razer carcharias ($45)
It sounds like most people say the steelseries are better quality wise but I'm just worried they will be hot because of the leather pads.
I have been using this rocketfish headset for the past few years so my expectations probably arent that high

Can analog headsets be used with laptops or would i have to have a USB headset?
