ah okay so pretty much there isnt a golden standard thats perfect for absolutly everyone. its kinda like cars and keyboards where everyone likes different things. And are more expensive cables better? i just bought the amazon basics rca to 3.5 cable?

the motherboard was just a budget motherboard at the time so i doubt it is is a asrock z390 pro4 and i think if i move the logi dac to the usb on the front of the case it would lessen the interference. if i wanted to compare the on board dac, logi dac, and modi what measurements would i want to look at?

oh i was under the assumption the magni was a dac lol, im mainly using the headphones for games like tarkov where footsteps and hearing is very important and then listening to music while i study. Do i have how to work a stack right? Pc to dac, dac to amp, amp to headphones?
