A dog ate my old mic (no joke) so I need a new one to get back on Teamspeak. I already use some nice Sennheiser headphones for my PC so it would either have to be a desktop mic (do they even make those anymore?) Or what I did before which was place a heatset mic around my nick and tilt the boom up to be around my mouth.

Any good recommendations?

This is what I use. It is an incredibly good quality mic for the money.

Cool thanks guys. I've heard good things about the Zalman from another forum. Pretty cheap too in case something happens to it. Good Teamspeak quality too?

Yeah from personal experience they are both great, I used the Zalman for a couple of years until I wore it out and now currently using the Modmic which is better quality but costs more as well.

Both are good choices at difference price points.

It works great with Teamspeak. You just clip the mic to your headphone's cable.
