They're all the same link. 

 

Also, if nothing is wrong with your motherboard, chances are a dac/amp won't make a difference.

250ohm headphones don't need amps. They should run just fine.

 

 

Edit- You could use an amp, ain't no one stopping you

DT880's are pretty flat and analytical, but they're pretty decent for gaming yes.

They should be alright for gaming, but an open headpone with a wide soundstage could be even better, like the Sennheiser HD558, or Audio-Technica ATH-AD700X (sucks for music though, no bass) and those definately don't need an amp.
