I am stump between the two.
The Siberia V2 is not 7.1 surround but by buying a soundcard is it able to produce (or emulate) 7.1 like the G430?

Thanks!

To a degree, yes.

But since the G430 is designed around dolby digital surround via the in-line USB sound card, it should do it a little better than the Siberia.

I don't know, I still need to get my G430. :D  Ordered it as its out of stock locally.

But most reviews peg the G430 as a very good allrounder.

Thanks for your input (insert thumbs up icon here, i don't know how lol)
Though I am still getting the Steelseries Siberia V2 only because it is popular and has good reception and reputation. And when I search up "Best headset under $100" the Siberia always shows up even in 2014 so I think it is popular for a reason, I still need to try it though. Anyone here have the Siberia V2?

I have used a V2. Its good, but light and the mic tends to move a lot.

Nice, but why are you getting a G430 though?

Because its time to replace my Corsair 1500.

The Corsair 1500 is also in my sight. Would you recommend the Siberia or 1500?

Uhm, I enjoyed the Siberia more.

The 1500 felt too loose and cheaply built, the in-line mute button failed after like 4 weeks.
