Looking to buy a soundcard and Headset?

Johannel · Jul 8, 2014

Hey guys, so im looking to buy a good soundcard, and a good headset for gaming and music/movies.

I don't really know where to begin looking for the soundcard, so maybe you guys can help me?

If you need to know my system specs just ask.

My budget is around 200 each I'd say, but I do have some wiggle room!

Before committing to an internal sound card, I'll recommend watching this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1rXcJuEsy0 take it for what you will, I'm by no means an audiophile

C12Friedman :

I disagree with the video. People like to say sound cards are no longer necessary because integrated audio in motherboards has increased significantly, and while that is true, its not to the level of replacing soundcards. They provide better quality, and most integrated audio controllers don't have features such as Dolby Headphone or Dolby Digital Live, both extremely important if using a headset or set of quality headphones to game on PC.
