I need a new pair of headphones for my PC, what EU options are there? It would be good if they can be comfortably worn with glasses.

Beyerdynamics FOR SURE but it depends if he means "gaming" like good sound or ""gaming"" like RGB LED'S and a 3d waifu printed on the side

Do either make gaming headphones, though? I think the OP was specific, and I'm not familiar with their product lines.

Most stuff marketed as "gaming" anything is horribly overpriced garbage. The only thing that is available in most "gaming headphones" that usually isn't included in similarly priced normal headphones is an integrated microphone. Any mid quality consumer grade headphone is more than enough for gaming in combination with a cheap mic. And it is going to have way better audio quality than something like Razer.

Yes. They're probably the two most popular brands for streamers and gamers.

I use Beyerdynamic gear for music production, so should give an idea on how serious their gaming stuff is. Sennheiser needs no introduction; a household name for most.

I'd recommend the DT-700 Pro X unless OP wants open back, then the 900 is most popular. 990s if sound clarity and flatter EQ is priority, but always found the trebles a bit too high.

880s were my daily drivers for a decade, I have a set of 1990s now but I still really recommend the 880s, super comfortable and great for pretty much anything I used them for. Personally never saw the point to gaming branded stuff, a good set of open/semi open reference headphones is pretty much ideal for gaming.
