I was wondering what sound card would be the best for gaming if I had an ASUS X99-Deluxe Mobo and a pair of Sennheiser G4ME One Blacks? I usually play RPG's/Open World (Skyrim, Dragon Age, Far Cry, etc.) , some MMO's (Guild Wars 2), Turn Based Strategies (Total War series, CK2), Minecraft, DayZ/Arma 3, and the occasional Counter Strike game. Thanks!

To be honest you dont really need a soundcard, the x99 onboard audio is great!

But if you really wish to have a soundcard, asus xonar essence stx is best :)

EDIT: heres a link, PS this card also looks awesome :D http://www.asus.com/Essence_HiFi_Audio/Xonar_Essence_STX/
oh and also i think there is a 2nd version, but its kind of pricey though
