Hi everyone,

In the market for some headphones for my computer, mainly for future use when streaming to Twitch, my budget no more than around £150 (so i guess about $200) but ideally i'd like to spend less than that.

Originally i was going to go with the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x's but i heard that these aren't very comfortable for long use and aren't great for gaming, then i was going to go with the Sennheiser HD 598's but the only thing that bothers me about them is they are open design and don't want a lot of sound leakage, the other option is the Beyerdynamic dt 770 's which seem to be both comfortable and good for gaming, but the design IMO leaves a lot to be desired, i know design shouldn't be important and it isn't really but my concern is the white earpads may get dirty over time but so far these seem like the best option.

Does anyone have any other suggestions on good headphones for gaming? A mic isn't need.

Thanks
