Hi there.
 
My HD 598 headphone is connected to an Asus xonar u1. 
 
 
Do you guys think I'm getting the most out of my headphones. I don't have a ton of more money to spend but will only spend if it will help me a lot. I play games mostley and can't install a sound card in my pc at the moment as I'm running 2x graphics cards and it's blocking my pci-e ports. So will adding an external amp benefit me in any way. AS you can see below it looks like it can do 50 ohms
 
my motherboard and sound card details below

For High End Headphone Enjoyments

THD+N<0.005% @ 47mW x2/32ohms
