I don't see a need for a DAC unit.
It looks like another thing to plug in is all. just more power to run another unit that may or may not improve the sound?
Another hundred bucks or MORE? More MONEY?
See this is where things start to spiral out of control. LOL.
No I think the sound card on the MB is great and the AVR system decodes things great to. my Denon is like a computer inside it's self. LOL.
No my system is full on Audiophile level quality no need to add a DAC to it.

Note: I do not use headphones have issues with things on my ears.

Check out the sound system on my motherboard.
It's just AMAZING IMTHO.

My Modi 3 makes everything sound better, and there really is no risk to you, just refund it if you disagree with me. I think you are missing out personally, a good DAC like the Modi 3 does make a difference.

I think you would hear a lot lower noise, if you put them in a case, also what about dust ?

Dust has never been a problem with a test bench setup for me. I spray it to make sure there's no dust in the components but surface dust isn't a problem and most of the time the fans on the PS and VC aren't turning so I can't hear it running.

No need when the CPU hits 4200Mhg by itself.

I use a Modi too and its better, no doubt. There is no interference from the rest of the inside of the pc. Plus it's a great value. Got my Modi 3 scratch n dent and its was brand new (no scratches or dents).

Here's the inside of my PC ATM. The red LED stripe on the motherboard with the orange cougar fans has interesting look.

So does all the LED colorful lighting make the computer go faster or just make it a flashing bright distraction that looks supper cool?

Honestly I turned all them fancy lights off. I just find it a distraction and another thing to draw power.

The RGB alone can run Crysis itself.

No but seriously the RGB lighting doesn't bother me, I have it on a slow colour changing setting, I don't mind it.
