Asus Essence STX High End PC Sound Card

AsSiMiLaTeD

I'm downsizing my PC collection, and have an extra of these cards laying around.

This is a great high end sound card, and if you need a card that's good for both music AND games it's gonna be hard to beat this card. This card has:

- Great stereo output for music playback
- Dedicated headphone amp, will drive pretty much any can out there, drives my demanding 600 ohm DT880 cans very well.
- Swappable Op Amps, this card has the stock chips installed.
- Digital output for multichannel output

You can likely get better sound out of an external DAC, but those won't handle games nearly as well. Like I said, if you need a card that does games AND music well, this should be your last stop.

The model is Asus Essence STX, and it's a PCI-Express slot (the tiny slot not the full length regular slot). Keep in mind that this card requires additional power from the power supply, so you'll need an extra regular molex type connection on your power supply.

I'd like to get $150 SHIPPED to the lower 48. I have the original box and materials.

Amazon is a little cheaper on this than I though, adjusting my price

Lots of views and no bites, you guys let me know if my price is out of line. I've scoured other sites and listings though and it's cheaper than anything I've found.

There's been plenty of discussion on here about people wanting a high end sound card, well this is the card for you especially if you want a balance of music and games.
