Hello. For Christmas I am getting the DT770 Pro with 250 Ohms. What happens if i put a high impedance ohm headset into on-board audio... will it just be quiet or kill my motherboard or headset.

*note*: I AM BUY A SOUND CARD TO MATCH THE OHMS (AE-5 or the Strix Soar) or a Amp/Dac

Welcome to Tom's!
Using Hi-impedance headphones will not damage the on-board audio of your motherboard, or your headphones. Your on-board audio amp is meant to drive 8-ohm speakers, it will only be harmed by using a load of less than 8 ohms.
