you can get usb sound cards that support a microphone input, it will likely be of lower quality than any modern onboard solution, though.

Okay so I have a headset with two 3,5mm jacks, stereo and mic, and just bought the o2+dac.

 

The cable splits very close to the jacks, I know there is the possibility of an extention cable for the mic, but I would like to disable onboard audio for non-relevant to topic reasons.

 

I want to connect the mic to the pc with usb, is this possible? I have seen adapters for 3.5mm to usb, does all 3.5 mm(female) support mic?

Too bad you didn't get the Syba DAC, then you could have head everything in one unit.

But the o2/odac is so sexy. ;)
