Now that i have CF, i can't use my sound card. But i still have a PCI Express x1 free that i can use.

I plan on getting a nice pair of headphones and ditch my 2.1 speakers (Logitech Z623).

Im very interested in these

Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO Open Studio Headphones 250 Ohms

My dilemma , i have extremely limited experience with sound cards. The one i have that i can't use is a Xonar DG, not the best sound card im sure, but theres an obvious improvement over my on board crap.

Budget:125 max

What i'll be doing is gaming, and enjoying music.
What would be a good card for listening to music, and playing games (BF3, Skyrim,CoH etc) ?

Part of the reason i picked those headphones is because they supposedly work well with virtual surround sound due to their sound stage. So if the card can emulate that it's a huge plus.

Xonar Dx or Creative Z are the only two I can think of unless you want to go usb.
