Any good upgrade or sidegrade for the Xonar STX?

Seldomly I have one problem when I pause the Foobar while having the output on ASIO and there is one youtube video playing on chrome.

The audio volume goes to the maximum while outputing a very high noise.

I can't stand this shit anymore. Also ASUS doesn't release any update to the drivers.

My headphones: Senn HD-600, ATH m50x and Sennheiser HD-25-II.

Nobody uses internal sound cards anymore, just external dacs

Desk space?
Lack of power outlets?
Convenience?

I use the same and don't have any issues. Running 8.1 x64 and the inofficial drivers. They may help.

Internal is better in a huge PC build if you need to power 600 Ohm headphones. Most don't require sound cards anymore, only high ohm ones need that.

External DACs are overpriced pieces of shit that don't even have meme features like digital EQ built into drivers or meme virtual surround sound. Often times they're flawed in design like Schitt's entire shit stack and you're better off with onboard audio

HDMI out from vidya card to receiver. Fuck your deskspace user.
