Need help deciding whether to get a nice headset or a good microphone

[Evilredkilla]

Okay, so the details are that I've a YouTube channel that I'm trying to improve, I can either get a nice headset with an ok microphone (Logitech G430) or a nice microphone (Blue Snowball) I have a Turtle Beach P11 headset, but the mic on it broke. Should I buy a Blue Snowball and keep the regular sound quality of my Turtle Beach P11 or buy a new headset (Logitech G430) without buying the Blue Snowball?

EDIT: BTW If I get the headset, I'm not going to use it just for recording gameplay. I'm also going to use it for just casual gaming when I'm not recording. The 7.1 sound will be nice touch

Shifted this to the hardware section, bam

I would honestly go for a better microphone. Headsets aren't that important, in my opinion. I just go with a headset I've had for years

Agreed. The headset does nothing for your youtube channel. The microphone will help.

All about audio quality so buy a microphone. I personally have a Blue Yeti. Its good and cheap

Instead of Snowball try a meteor ?
