Is a sound card worth it?

ryecribbytree

I'm buying the hyper x cloud linus did a video on and i'll be using on board sound from my MSI 970A-G46. In logans video he noted they were 62 ohm and he advised an amp/dac but that is a little expensive.

if you are going to use high impedence headphones like 80+ ohms than yes you should get a sound card but if not just get a motherboard with the right outputs for your headphones.
