I have a DAC but only support usb 2.0 and cannot support 3.0 so I would like to buy a audio interface can support 3.0 and price not more than 500 better around 200 (include the cable) better can tell me where to buy.(dont mind used)

also about spdif cable (I have had a good use cable, bu 2.0 cable)

Is there even any audio that can take advantage of USB 3.0?

This does zero for you. You're chasing a number. There's zero point to USB 3.0 currently in audio interfacing.

Bandwidth is the only reason the protocol has advanced. Current audio data rates simply do not saturate USB 2.0, not even close.
 
Very best,

Yes. But the OP obviously likes bigger. Can't you tell by the unnecessarily extra large font size in his post?

xinyuzhao: But seriously. USB 3.0 is completely unnecessary for a DAC. Think of it like water going through a garden hose where you have plenty of water coming out for your plants without the pressure (the faucet) even being turned up much. USB 2.0 is more than big enough to stream audio to the DAC. Adding a bigger pipe (USB 3.0) will accomplish nothing. Focus instead on getting the best sounding DAC you can for your money.

I don't know why just cannot support so I think m2tech hiface is a good choice and no need to choose a good USB cable... And that is not expensive

Did you know you can plug USB 2.0 devices into USB 3.0 input on your computer? So there is no need for a DAC to use USB 3.0.
