    Hey everyone,

    I'm looking for a relatively cheap headset that I can use w/ my Dell XPS M1530. I want a nice pair that can give me good quality sound as well as provide good mic functionality for games such as Team Fortress 2. I seem to like this one, a Logitech-ClearChat:

    I have two questions:

    1) Is the headset compatible with my laptop?

    AND

    2) Is the headset good enough to do what I need it to do (i.e. serve as a mic for tf2, give me good sound quality)?

    ---

    Thanks!

    I have seen reviews that the usb part breaks or falls apart after a while, so you might want to search that up but if it doesn't then I've only heard good things about it other than that.
