well all the old creative sound-cards had major drivers issues based on my own personal research, when i was interested in buying one sometime ago, Both Amazon.com & TomHardware Forums users had similar complains as you have, and the matter gets only worse in case of Windows 10.

Well in 2-3K budget range you can look at Steel Series Sibera V2 (Refurb) perhaps or i would strongly suggest you even getting a earphones/earbuds like Xiaomi or Fiio, instead of a headphone, as it would be hard to for you to find a good headphone in your price range.

Then use it mate, it is far better than a dedicated sound card!i got fiio E07k
My Gamecom 367 finally broke (in my bag - I slept on them :tv.
I need a replacement. Currently deciding between Philips SHP9500 and Hyperx Cloud Core. Will be ordering tonight. Right now, I'm leaning towards the 9500 given they're compared to the much much more expensive Sennheiser HD600s.
============
Put in an order for a pair of V-Moda Crossfade LP (portable) and the Philips SHP9500 for home usage (since they're open). If things go smoothly, they should be here in 10ish days.

I'd recommend open headphones for gaming and anything really as long as you know you'll be in your room, not surrounded by people. They don't isolate sound, either way. So you'll hear things around you, and people around you will hear what's playing. The pros of these? Much better sound-stage. You can position sound sources much better.
Top recommendation for a non-portable open headphone in the 150USD budget is of course the Sennheiser HD598. However, the Philips SHP9500 is an excellent choice too, and is much much cheaper. Check out its reviews.
Also ordered Xiaomi Hybrid Pro HD for good measure. SHP9500 for home usage, Hybrid Pros for outdoors and Crossfade LP for commute/work.
guys would anyone know any good bluetooth earphones that i can buy from aliexpress and are relatively cheap. I've been searching regarding the "QCY earphones", has anyone tried them. I want one that provide a good bass and are sweatproof.
Bluedio is available on Aliexpress. They have decent reviews on Amazon etc. What's your budget?
About 3k , can go to 4k if qualities good and they deliver

Yeah Aliexpress is your best bet. They have a decent variety. Always check feedback and only order from sellers who have delivered a lot of orders (and has good reviews/feedback).
I recently saw someone sell some Jaybird X3s for 40ish bucks on ebay.. But most of the sellers don't ship to Pakistan so..
Try Allmytech they have many Bluetooth earphones and headphones and they perhaps might even provide some local warranty.

Got the beauties. Currently testing SHP9500s with my PC and boy do they sound exquisite, especially after some EQ tweaking.

Yes very much. I've heard several reviewers compare them to the HD600s after a few eq tweaks, which is indeed very impressive.
I won't do such thing
Even my HE400i might not be as good as HD600 ...
But SHP9500 are quite good ...

Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.

XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

XPremiuM:
Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
