    Looks good. Remember to turn on Mic Boost in Windows.

      Ok well thanks. Also, I discovered my dad had a desktop mic all along and so we dug it out of the closet today and plugged it in. We did serveral mic tests in and out-of-game and we turned the microphone boost on and turned every microphone option that dealed with receiving and outgoing volume 100% but still, the mic proved to be useless and I had to talk really loud plus have my mouth literally on the end of the mic and people in-game still told me it was pretty quiet. I spent the last 2 hours trying to set it up and it's pretty depressing...

      But, the mic has no label and my dad got it as his job for free so it's probably not good quality at all but I'm still going to go with a desktop mic but now I'm thinking to buy a cheap-ish headset that way if it doesn't work I'll have that... :nod:

        Turn mic boost on. (It sounds like you haven't).

          Well, actually I turned on both Windows mic boost and the mic boost under the 'voice' tab in the options in-game...

I'm already looking at desktop mics based off some other reviews and what Alex told me but if it's really that great, then I'll look into it. (Yeah, I also go with pretty much everything that is made by Logitech also... )

            yeah it is.. i had a cheaper set of logitech ones and they seemed to hurt the tops of my ears.. these ones are alot better.. and the mic is good.. but it is only $70au so its not going to be the best.. but it works fine for me..


            these r the ones i had before the new ones and their terrible! they hurt your ears after about 1-2 hours use.. try and get somthing that has good padding.. whats ur budget?

              My Budget = $25-60(ish) again, I live in the United States so it's U.S. dollars.

                So what brand is that headset you got a pic of? I'm guessing they're not logitech...

                    yeah the ones in the most recent pic i posted are cheap logitech ones.. their good but not very comfy.. for around $70 aus dollers which is about $50-55 US dollers u can get the next ones up which are comfy and really good quality :)

                    The mic and speakers are REALLY clear quality and i can wear them all day without any discomfort :)
