I need to purchase a X99 mobo for a Multi GPU system, so I can't use a good soundcard (and I want to avoid external ones).
I will plug it on a good old Entuxiast Home Theater Amplifier (Optical), and I want the best 7.1 / DTS sound for gaming and movies.
The only one with a creative chip is the Gigabyte X99 Gaming 5, it should be the MoBo I need, but as I read here "If it uses the DAC built in that SoundCore chip then it is not going to be that good because it has pretty poor built in DAC and ADC."
Any suggestion?
Realtek soundchips can now finally reproduce surround sound for gaming too?
