Hi,
 
The SMSL M8 is on sale on Massdrop for $175 instead of $250.
I need a DAC because my GPU causes electromagnetic interference to my sound card (ESI Juli@) when it's under load (gaming).
 
I'd like to be able to add software effects in the future, so I need an optical input, which is why the non-Uber Modi 2 is out of the question. 
So it's either the Modi 2 Uber or the SMSL M8. What do you think?

Bought 4 SMSL DACs a few years back, not the reliable.
 
Hifimediy sells an optical DAC for $59.
