Title: Best Soundcard for Linux?
Post by: icedigger on August 19, 2019, 07:33:38 PM

I'm thinking of upgrading from my onboard soundcard to the new EVGA soundcard.

Is this supported in Linux?

If not what is the best soundcard that Linux supports?

I do love my audio.  Pairing with a set of Klipsch bookshelf speakers and some nice Sony Headphones.

This card keeps coming up in searches for a good linux soundcard - Asus Xonar DX.

Thread moved, not a topic requiring fixing, it is an enquiry.

Thank you for the heads up.  Totally forgot about Asus making soundcards.  I'll check it out.
