Dont get "gaming" headsets. For the most part they are utterly trash and way overpriced. With very, VERY few exceptions. Like -

I went for the HyperX Cloud since there were reduced in the Black Friday sales. The sound quality is good. I can hear background effects that I couldn't hear before eg. footsteps of enemies approaching me from behind in Titanfall 2.

For Ł150/$167 I would go for the Sennheiser Game One or Game Zero. One is open ear the other is closed. They are supposed to be the best out there.
If you want to save yourself a bunch of cash then get the Sennheiser HD 558 which is basically the same headphones without the mic, buy a seperate mic and adapter of cheap.
Audio Adapter
mic

This is solid advice. Both the Sennheiser and the HyperX cloud are really good.
