DAC for MSI GS63VR

[Austinjh]

What DAC would you recommend?

 

I have an MSI GS63VR. The headphone and mic ports don't work also the middle usb port (same PCB). I use vmoda headphones with the boompro mic. 

 

I'm thinking under $200 but that's flexible.

 

Also what have you guys done to help with loud laptop fans in game. I don't want to annoy other players. I do use a moniter as my primary screen so I can relocate the laptop a little.

 

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Have you considered buying usb sound card?

@Amforev Sorry I'm not the most proficient with my audio terms. I was assuming a usb sound card was a DAC. 

 

Is something like this my best option?

 

Eventually I will build a desktop so I'd like something that I can carry over to that

I think that this Sound Blaster will work fine for gaming.
