I've never had anything other than onboard sound before. I want to step it up. It needs to be PCI-e. Use will be mix gaming, movies and music. Mostly music. I'm not a professional gamer and I don't need the last .1fps or marginally better positioning, I probably wouldn't be able to tell.
I'd prefer to keep it under 100 but I can easily go up beyond that. Keep in mind my output though, I don't plan on upgrading any of that at this time. I'm not spending $500 on a $300 set of cans.
Current set up:
Senheisser HD 598(sometimes left at work)
Beyer Dynamic DT770 80 Ohm(not used as much as before)
Senheisser HD 280 pros(seldom used)
Klipsch promedia 2.1 speakers.
Fiio E7 portable amp(I want to migrate this to work)
I currently run the HD598 and the Klipsch speakers concurrently. The 598s do detail fairly well and the sub on the Klipsh somewhat makes up for any weaknesses headphones might have in producing Bass. I'd like to replicate this set up going onward.
If I could get a list of a few options that are decent that would be nice. I want to shop around for the best deal.
