looking for a solution

woop woop

Hey there,

 

I want to buy a soundcard or another solution for the following case:

I bought the Teufel Concept E 400 digital media set and connected it with my laptop over S/PDiF (yes, my laptop has such an output).

The slot was dbl used and I had to plug in/out the cable with connect my headphones on the same slot for things like teamspeak.

 

But I now sold the laptop, only have a pc left and my motherboard doesnt provide a single S/PDiF output.

 

Ive read you can connect your sound reciever with the graphic unit via HDMI (I have a 680 GTX).

But my reciever doesnt have such a connection slot.

 

I want to watch movies in DTS/Dolby Digital and maybe playing games which support some direct sound but also need an input for my headphones (mostly for teamspeak and shooter). The sound on my onboard card is horrible or just broken. I dont mind to using it.

Also, DTS connect and dolby prologic would be great to have.

 

Would be nice if I could use analogue and digital simultanously with an application specific control but thats not really a must have.

 

Im not a native and my english is bad but spelling mistakes are wanted as entertainment.

A usb sound card with that plug will be fine. Spdif bypasses the dac so almost anything with that plug and decent driver will work

Spdif/optical out is all you need mainly. (As I said dac isn't used if you use digital)

If you find something post it here for us to check if you want to be sure
