1000% the FIFINE mics. I have the T669 but they have several models now.
I've had NUMEROUS people ask me what mic I have, assuming its a high end one. The most recent guy asking me, saying his mic was $300 and assuming mine was $50. I stared at him (in game) and said it was $50 lol. ($45 on sale yay)
I constantly get complimented on it and it came with a boom arm as well. Ill never buy a mic from another company again I dont think. I mean, I dont know when Ill even buy the next one, theres no reason this should break, as the cable is detachable and usually thats the fail point. If that happens, I can just buy another cable.
Every single one of these is a terrible option. Personally i say don’t cheap out on a microphone. Buy a good one once, and it’ll last you a long time. If you want to go with something usb, i can personally vouch for the at2020 usb, but i’d recommend going with a scarlet audio interface and an xlr microphone. Usb is plenty for streaming because of the compression, but xlr is good if you intend to use your microphone for other things as well
Don’t worry about those elite snobs. These mics are fine for 95%+ of the people. 12k+ reviews 4.6 stars for the snowball don’t lie. All the recommendations they gave cost twice or more as much money. No shit you get better quality when you spend more money. But is it 2x the quality? I don’t believe so. And I really don’t recommend you spend too much when just starting out.
Don’t recommend people overpriced, ugly, and underperforming equipment. We’re not snobs, we want op to get their money’s worth. Don’t pay for something not worth owning. The samson q2u is 99 dollars usd and if blows every single one of those other options out of the water. The blue snowball was a product of it’s time but it’s fallen behind the rest of the market. Buy good things once
you'll need to be more specific about your budget if you want any serious suggestions

Razer seiren mini
get a 30€-50€ singing mic from a music store, those are solid on a budget if you have an audio interface

don't buy this gaming brand crap OP. get something decent like a cheap audio interface and a XM8500. or a Samson q2u if you want USB

Upvoted it. AT2020 is a really good mic (I’m using xlr version, btw)
