Don’t buy seperate.

 

Gaming headsets are designed for multiplayer gaming, which means it has a mic. Any “gaming” headset that doesn’t have a mic is just an overpriced, overly large ipod headset.

 

Even the most expensive standalone mics still sound terrible to your teammates because you’re typically over a foot from it. You normally can’t enable noise cancelling for fear of it silencing yourself which means that everything in the room is going to come through on voice comms and every little noise is going trigger the voice activation.
