A question on S/PDIF, the internal header, optical out, and sound cards
Go to solution
Solved by QueenDemetria,
That kinda sucks... The other PCIe slot is being blocked by my GPU heatsink, so I'm stuck with legacy PCI...
The only soundcards I can find here are the low-end Xonars and no-name ones... And most of them don't even have optical out which makes things pointless...
You could use a USB soundcard with Toslink(like the Turtle Beach Amigo II or SIIG IC-710112-S1). Honestly cards like the Xonar DG 5.1 aren't that bad if you still wanted to use a PCI card. If you are only using the Toslink then there really isn't much difference between most cards.
