DT 990 Premium 250+amp and dac OR?

I'll be getting myself the 990s, I have a slew of questions.

Ill be gaming and listening to music on my PC, Mobility is not a concern. 

Motherboard: Asus Strix Z270G 


1) What AMP and DAC Combo should I get for the headphones? is a FiiO EK10k enough?
2) Do I even need a DAC or and AMP is the Motherboard Audio enough?
3) Or should I be getting a Sound Card?
4) Or should i just avoid all this and get the 32ohms version? Is there a difference? (I like to go loud)

I am also open to suggestions on other good Headphones. In this price range. 
My shopping is done from Amazon.in so they tend to have the wonkiest of prices.

Same answers as always. You probably won't need an amp or DAC, but if you WANT one, get the $99 Schiit Fulla. This is probably overkill for your uses, but what the hell. It's a nice product.

 

Regarding the headphones, they are okay. Treble is kind of the sticking point, some people don't mind it, others find it too bright.

Perfect for my Music needs. And headphones with onboard Audio is fine for me, although I wont mind investing in the Fulla down the line. 


Thanks!
