Sounds yes, gaming no. The Maxwells are amazing for overall sound. If you watch a lot of videos, music, and game, yes probably the best option. If you only throw your headset on to jump on discord to shoot the shit with friends and game, the sound imaging is more neutral, so they aren’t as good for pin point sound. Depending on the type of games you play, this could be big. For me I use bookshelf speakers unless I jump on discord to game, so I went with the steel series nova 7 over the Maxwell for this reason. The nova pro have good features, but anc, transparency mode, aren’t useful for gaming. The hot swappable battery is nice, but didn’t warrant the extra price. USB-C charging on the nova 7 can get you 6 hrs off a 15 min charge so didn’t think it was worth the extra for myself.
