I've ordered the Audioquest Carbon from Amazon. I'm using an IFI Ipurifier2 in my setup. My question is, will the purifier nullifie the improvement that i get through the cable because it's connected to the DAC, i mean between the cable and the DAC? Or should i remove my IPurifier from my audio chain?

You'll need to listen for yourself. The iPurifier2 has worked for me in a few situations, in others it's been a disappointment. It depends on your particular system and whether you like what it does to the sound (i.e individual preference). The USB cable is only part of the equation.

Not sure but make sure you order the smallest distance of cable for your needs. Even the expensive cable manufacturers that could make more money from longer cables say it’s a true concept.
Cables are not snake oil in that they do make an audible difference, but price is no guarantee of performance. The belkin usb is a perfect example - As good as just about anything, yet costs only ~$10.
Then again, I've used a ton of different <$3 cables, all with success too.
Actually, the only cable I've ever NOT gotten to work was an $800 Wireworld coax cable that I got pretty cheaply just for the heck of it. Couldn't get it to work. My best guess was that the connectors had some gunk/oxidation on the inside of the parts that hold onto the coax jacks which was preventing a good connection.

I sent the Audioquest Carbon back. Too much money but i've read about another cable which seems promising.
The Supra USB Cable https://www.whathifi.com/supra/usb-20/review
I'm gonna try this next.
Maybe it's an improvement to my Audioquest Forest.

Supra is quite detailed but a bit artificially shouty. If distance Is not a concern, please try the uptone uspcb. price is similar (I own both and like both, but uspcb is technically better).
