My question is whether or not the HyperX Cloud II headset will work with my PC/motherboard if I can't use headsets which utilize jacksticks, since there only will be sound on the right side of headsets. However, I don't have any problems with USB headsets, for example I used the Logitech G35 (usb headset) for over three years until I accidently broke it.
Since the HyperX headset has a jackstick adapter which can connect to a USB, will it then connect to my PC as a USB or Jackstick? I hope my question makes sense.

TLDR: Motherboard/pc doesn't work with jackstick - which results in sound in one side of all jackstick connected headsets. Consequently, I wonder if this will make the HyperX headset conflict with my motherboard, resulting in sound from only the right side in the headset (even though it can be connected with an USB).

Thanks for your comment.

Are you sure that my PC will recognize it as an USB? Because if it recognizes the headset as a jackstick, I will very likely experience sound only from the right side of the headphones. (due to an error which I haven't found out yet)

Furthermore, if I connect the headset through USB, will I then also be able to use stereo as well as 7.1 surround sound? :)

When the headset is connected through the USB, will I also be able to use stereo sound and 7.1 surround sound?
