Cotton, I would go with the Sennheiser. A lot of people like them but you do get what you pay for and that isn't much. Several people say the Koss KSC-75's are better. I haven't looked much into the Sennheiser models but I've done a lot of research on the Koss KSC-75's and I'll tell you, I'm going to get a pair. They're excellent high-rated headphones. Check prices with Google Products to get the best deal.

Mister, onboard audio sucks. Especially if you use analog output. Digital isn't as bad but it's VERY hard to find onboard audio that doesn't mess with sample rates and converting stuff. You have to think that they only include it because it's cheap and it adds a feature. Onboard graphics & onboard sound, they both suck but are only there to serve a basic function.

Damn..  Those were the ones that I was hoping no one would tell me to get.  I don't think I could add a mic to that very easily.  But thanks for your input.  I'll take it in :)

EDIT:

You mean these?
I think I had a pair..  I didn't like them at all.  Lol.

There's mic's that I know you can clip to the cord. For mic's it doesn't really matter for quality since VOIP isn't anywhere near studio quality but you definitely want to think of headphones first and mic later. You can always hotglue a popsicle stick to your headphones and put your mic on that :P

Well I was planning on doing the same thing that that tutorial thing you posted did..  And I might even add a little extra so I can use it on my PS3 if I do get it..  But probably not..

That tutorial, it only works for Beyerdynamic DT770/880/990 headphones. You'd have to adapt another method for any other headphone.

The only thing that would be different really is how the mic is attached.  Not that hard to change the aluminum cut out..

The Beyerdynamic headphones have a unique mounting design that allows a really nice secure mounting point. Good luck making one for the Sennheiser's.

I wouldn't trust Sylvania for headphones. NOS tubes maybe... but not headphones.

If you guys have some time, read up on what I'm trying to explain:

Well seeing as those are WAY out of my price range..  I guess I'll just get Sennheiser HD201's
Thanks guys.

I needed a headset so I bought these for $30.

I know they are not that good of quality but $30 is great price considering it was only $10 more than the shitty headset I had before.

It's the headset part you should be worried about.
