Asthenia 138 Report post Posted June 10, 2014 That's a cool hack. I use a digital headset and analog speakers. The assumption that PC users only have analog sound systems is fucking annoying when you consider most mobos (dunno about prebuilt PC's), have optical out on them.

Qdeathstar 1763 Report post Posted August 3, 2014 Well, I deciding to get a sound card to output dts through optical. The difference in sound is amazing. Especially in the low end. Who ever said you don't need a sound card for pc gaming was high.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
