I have Asus B85-plus (http://www.asus.com/no/Motherboards/B85PLUS/)
I thought the inbuilt soundcard was terrible so I went along and bought a Asus Xonar DGX. Realised afterwards I should have installed drivers and use Realtek HD Audio Manager. And the inbuilt soundcard now seems ok.
Does the DGX give me any better sound than the inbuilt sound on B85-plus: Realtek ALC887?
(follow up problems after installing drivers:
After installing latest realtek audio drivers my computer started messing up. problems closing windows 8 window mode. Generally slow and unresponsive.
Iv experienced some oddities, now flux wont start automatically on startup (along with other software).
Also when i check my realtek audio drivers properties it says I have a later version than the one I installed?
Anyone familiar with these issues on this motherboard?
(also my ethernet input stopped working just recently. tried to update drivers. still not working. computer performance after ethernet failure was fast and stable))
