I have the complete Asus Strix set, it's pretty fuckin' good. Headset is huge, light and comfy, mouse is a really nice size with DPI switches and the rest of it, Keyboard is a nice size and has 20 something macro keys. All in all, a good set.

I've got the Ducky Shine and a Filco Majestouch, the Filco feel a lot stronger and better built, but it does lack a few features which just make things a bit easier.
The Ducky has media control keys, they are backlit as well which I always thought was a gimmick, but it's pretty helpful late at night.
In terms of price I believe they are pretty much the same.
Headsets are really personal preference I feel, I'm quite neutral on that front, I've been using a clip on microphone and a pair of headphones for a while and the extra cables can be a pain in the arse.
Having said that, I've not actually found a good gaming headset that I can really stick with tbh.

You got two shitty expensive pairs of headphones that gave you ear infections and when they both broke you bought another???

The QcK is ok, but as others have mentioned they go bald kinda fast. The Razer goliathus (speed edition) is far superior.
I've never used a ducky but lots of people I know do and they seem to love them.
The Siberia is crap. Like tommunist just said... He had 3 pairs and none lasted longer than 6 months. Get a good pair of headphones and add a modmic or a zalman clip on. Personally I use the audio technica ad700s (with a modmic). Fucking incredible headphones. They don't make them anymore but you might be able to find one somewhere.
If you are on a budget and want a headSET, the Razer carcharias honestly isn't bad. I used that before I got my ad700s and it was comfortable, the sound was good and the mic was great. I still use it at LANs.

actually the logitech g series head sets are pretty comfortable. I recommend.

I really like the Sony Mdr-v6, if you can get your hands on an authentic pair I'd defenitly recommend buying it, with an addon clip mic

Turtle beach has appalling customer service though
Tried a ~$70 turtle beach gaming headset for a few weeks recently and they were okay once I just plugged them straight into the computer rather than via their stupid media center control box thing that made it hiss annoyingly and gave me a headache.
Still wouldn't recommend.
