HyperX headsets actually have very predictable failure points depending on the model: HyperX Cloud II (Wired): The vast majority of issues are simple physical wear—either a frayed/broken cable or a damaged 3.5mm microphone jack.

Anyone else having latency issues on Scarletts?
You must use ASIO, and you must have headphone (or active speakers) connected to the interface to avail of the low latency driver. A cheap pair of headphones. I use these because they're very comfy for long hours gaming and guitaring https://www.amazon.ie/HyperX-Cloud-II-Gaming-Earbuds-Mic/dp/B0C14G

Headphone Recommendations?
HyperX cloud 3 S model. 120hr battery life is insane and they are a modern upgrade to the great hyper x cloud II wired which I owned 3 pairs of. You could go over 200 bucks and get something crazy, Im sure.

Any advice on affordable gaming headsets ?
Hello friend! My boyfriend knows a thing or two about affordable gaming headsets, so I asked him. His favourite simple pair is the Logitech G432. We have used several and they always last about 3 years until they stop working. Those are around 40 euro. For a more premium pair go for the HyperX Cloud

My current mic struggle (and why I believe headset mics do have purpose)
