  Great price for a good set of open-back cans. Got mine delivered for A$327 just over a year ago.

    PC? Sure, dac/amp worth considering.

    Simple breakdown for a non-audiophile "gaming" focused buyer:
    - Open-Back Headphone design - Wider soundstage, makes the "room" seem larger, i.e. for determining positioning of footsteps/gunfire in competitive shooters
    - Tuned to be warmer and bassier than would normally be, meaning you get a heavier hitting more traditional sounding headphone experience rather than what would otherwise be flat or too bright for the casual listener
    - Responds well to being plugged into a phone jack rather than requiring another costly amplifier purchase, but a DAC should be considered if you want the most out of them, depends how loud you listen though as well, sound is subjective
    - Quality product made from quality parts from a well known company and reliable source
    - Will make you realise why everyone says "gamer headphones" suck

    Depends on the PC, but most modern motherboards have fairly decent inbuilt sound cards these days but if you want to push these to their limit without distortion, a cheap dac would probably make a big difference for very little money

  Had mine for a few years and really good. Got the lamb skin ear pads and balanced cable, run them through my Schiit stack and they are excellent.
