Hi guys, currently I am using Gigabyte H87M-D3H motherboard which has Realtek ALC892 chipset in it using with Sennheiser HD439 Headphones. Now I am looking for a good quality headset for gaming purpose and HyperX Cloud Pro Gaming Headset is looking good to me for the price! My question is I don't really know that Realtek ALC892 is capable enough to run this headset or not? Therefore, I am looking for a good quality USB soundcard with headphone amp and end up with 2 models, 1. Asus Xonar U7 which is Rs. 5,309 (Indian currency) i.e 83.81 US Dollar and 2. Creative Sound Blaster Omni which is Rs. 5,928 (Indian currency) i.e 93.58 US Dollar. If I need to buy any of these two, which one should I get that should be future proof too because I might upgrade to better quality headphones in the near future! I will use these and those for gaming, listening to music and watching movies. Any help/suggestion will be highly appreciated. Thank you and happy holidays :)
