Thanks. I really don`t need a DAC or AMP now. 
There`s a lot of 150-300 dollars good over hear options there, i can`t decide. Any recomendation?

Well, the dt770 is on sale on newegg right now for $110 so I'd personally go for that and grab a mod mic for a pretty solid setup under 150 total.

Hello guys,

 

I want to upgrade my gaming sound system. Mainly, of course, for gaming, and then, music.

I use the onboard ALC887 with my Plantronics RIG Headset. I would like to know what would be the best option to upgrade my gaming sound system.

Maybe a Xonar DGX or a Fiio E10K DAC? Or maybe the onboard audio is enough? What do you guys recommend?

Neither, but if you want to upgrade can start by getting better headphones.

What do you recommend to be the best budget combo?

Depends on the budget.

Can i get a good combo under $250?

Sure, but I would spend all of it on headphone + mic without worrying about dac/amp just yet. Read through the recommended gear list to get an idea of what's available that fits your sound preference:
