I like to think of myself as a semi-audiophile (I would be a full audiophile, but I just don't have the money for all the equipment).

I have a pair of Sennheiser HD 439 and use them most of the time on my computer for everything from gaming, to watching movies, to of course listening to music.

What would be the best sound card for less than like $65?
I'm on a very limited budget, so I really don't want to spend much more than that, but I want something that will give me good-great quality for my music.

A card with a headphone amp would be preferred, but I'm sure if any in this price range have one?
