New Headset

I made a post a few days ago about how my SteelSeries Pro Wireless Headphones broke and died on me after 5 ish years. Well, now I need new ones. I feel like there are a 1000 good ones to pick from, so I'm overloaded with research and would love some input on what I am stuck between.

I game and watch movies primarily. I don't want to get an amp or anything like that.

1. Arctis Pro Wireless... again
2. Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro X
3. Beyerdynamic DT 990 pro
4. Sennheiser HD 560s
5. Other

All are around $200 ish

Thanks in advance!

I’m a fresh 70 and have always wanted to bear tank! However I forgot how rough tanking dungeons are with others.
How do you build the confidence to keep tanking when 90% of the time it’s the freakin frost mage who ruins it?

Right now I’ve had the same specs for about 5 years, except for my Gpu.
Ryzen 7 5800x3d
32 gb ram at 3600 cl16
RTX 3070
1 tb hdd
2tb hdd
1 tb nvme
850 power supply.

I have a dual monitor setup with a 1440 display and a 1080 display.
I only game and do some grading for work.

2 questions
I want to get rid of the hdds. Do I just get the cheapest nvme ssd I can find or should I keep my eyes open for specific ones?
Will something like a 5070 or 9070xt be viable for an upgrade or should I wait for the next cards?

I want to get rid of my 2 Hdds. Are nvme ssd

To start, I’m not looking for any handouts! Now that that’s out of the way, I am looking to try a trade up challenge and just see how far I get. I understand my chances are small but hell, why not give it a go.
I’ve watched a ton of streamers do these trade ups but I’m confused.
I know they buy mostly on third party sites, but what do they do with the skins they get? Do they sell it on that site or do they sell it on steam?
Is it just a big juggle between steam and these third party sites? Any direction would be awesome!
I also understand there are some “smoke and mirrors” that happens with the streamers but someone in this community has done trade ups that could help… hopefully.
Thanks in advance!

I haven’t upgraded my storage since building my computer in 2015. I have added and nvme but I still have an hdd as storage for my C drive. My main issue is that my c drive is now always full since it’s a 500mb storage unit.
My main question is does the price of the nvmes really equal its quality? Are their better ones then others or is storage storage?

This is the first time I’m buying discs in maybe 5 years.
I’ve had the same bag for that time and they are all banged up! However I can throw 300-325 with them.
Do you guys suggest buying new or could I get away with buying second hand?
I know I need a new destroyer, axiom crave, buzz, and judge. Outside of that I will need to research.
Any help is welcomed!
