Wired best because i don't need to charge it and there is no possibility of signal jamming by operating a microwave.
Everyone makes the argument of worrying about charging it, but the cable is still there… Like, when it’s low you plug it in and play as if it was wired. I play casually and plug mine in once every other week (HyperX).
For me it’s great because I hate the wire getting in the way but not everyone is bothered by that so to each their own.
I make the argument that its unnecessary to put a battery in a thing that will move within one square meter for the rest of its lifetime... I just don't see the positive of a wireless anything on a pc that is wired. A laptop might be a different story, but a tower PC is literally just standing in at place and you can lay the cable nice so it's not making problems.
Even though I use a desktop I still don’t think I could ever swap back to wired headphones. I frequently get up for a variety of reasons and keeping my music playing or continuing to chat with my friends is great. I briefly had to use a wired headset again and I nearly pulled the cable out a few times from getting up.
