And I want reasons, no "Intel is better AMD sucks", "nVidia is better than AMD" or "Kingston is the best yolo".

AMD Piledriver FX-6300 Black Edition @ 3.5GHz Processor

ASRock 970 Extreme3 R2.0 AMD 970 ATX Motherboard

X-Warrior Devil Red Edition Case

Crucial V4 64GB SSD

Corsair Vengeance 2 x 4GB 1600MHz RAM

Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB HDD

Coolermaster Extreme Power Plus 600W PSU

Sapphire HD 6570 2GB GPU

That’s about it, may get a disc drive too, as well as a sound card.

There's no need to get a sound card, integrated sound drivers are plenty good already, and if you really wanted something you'd get a DAC.

Judging by the choice of case, I'm guessing you are a ricer. Personally I think that case is absolutely disgusting.

And like I said, I think getting a quality DAC before getting a quality soundcard is a far better choice.

Try taking the context of the thread into consideration when you post.

Also DAC? lol. Those overpriced portable soundcards you mean?(As every soundcard, even the onboard ones have analog converters, otherwise you wouldn't be able to listen to it over a speaker/headphone properly.)I would always choose a cheaper old-fashined PCI sound card over it, which doesn't even occupy an additional usb slot, that can be used for everything else(considering op doesn't want to use that Pci slot for something else.).

"Those overpriced portable soundcards you mean?"
lol, clearly you know nothing about audio in the first place, and I have no idea why you are posting.

Not sure if trolling or just an idiot, but reported either way.
