Looked through newegg and I couldn't decide what to get.
Maybe this would be more appropriate in the Hardware forum.

I have used a RadioShack Hi Def headset for several years and am very happy with it... I have traveled the world with it more than once and put it through allot of use; the best part is I got it for $19.99 on sale. Check it out if you get the chance.

Can't go far wrong with Logitech for quality products at low prices. Try these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826106935 only $18.99

I got a Skype headset from WalMart. 15 bucks, worked better than I would ever have expected.

If you can squeeze out a little more cash, the eDimensional headset is the best I've used, sound and comfort wise.
You can buy online at tigerdirect.com for less than direct.

Though, they seriously do cancel ambient noise, you can barely hear anything unless it's loud or directly into the mic. I don't really like that, but some people do.

i have same pair
they r nice
its open-ear design
meaning no contact between the ear piece and ur ear
so u can fully hear other surroundings (unless u blast it loud)
reason i wanted an open-ear headest
is so i can use my speakers (and hear em at teh same time) for music
tho it isnt usb
so if u want to do that, u'll need 2 sound devices
(i have a soundcard + onboard sound)

Personally i use one of these.

Any bluetooth headset will work but i find that to be the most comfortable.
For the best set-up results replace the bluetooth drivers in windows with bluesoleil.
The advantage of running a bluetooth headset is you you still use your pc speakers for game sounds and/or music.
