Greetings, my name is Niko, i'm a Guitarist, and to some degree a pianist, i'm also a gamer.
soon i'll be getting a nice pair of headphones (so far i've borowed the Bose QC 15 from my father) the m50x's
Anyway i've started recording from a midi keyboard in ableton, but i'd like to also be able to record from my guitar, so i would ask if a audio interface like the Focusrite scarlet 2i2, could replace a DAC like the Fiilo e10k
 
any help or guidance from you geniuses would be amazing!

The headphone amp on the scarlett 2i2 is actually pretty good, same with the dac.
I don't think you will be lacking anything in terms of soundquality.
As an added bonus, the pre's are also really good so your guitar is gonna sound great.

The Scarlett 2i2 is an Audio Interface, not a sound card.
(but they both come with DAC & ADC chips and line-inputs & line outputs).
 
Sound cards usually do surround sound processing (like for FPS gaming), Audio Interfaces usually do not.
An Audio Interface can play audio from really any type of game, in stereo audio.
 
Do you already have a FiiO e10K?

I do not own an E10k, and thanks for making the diffrence of audio interfaces and soundcards clear.
