I don't know to much about sound cards so I came here for help. I have about $50 bucks to spend on a sound card ( getting one for Sennheiser 598's). Here are two I found.
Asus Xonar- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829132020

Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE 7.1- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA24G28N0482&cm_re=soundblaster-_-29-102-003-_-Product

If anyone knows any other good sound cards for under $60 then feel free to say. I should mention I'm going to be using the headphones for mostly gaming, Thanks

I would recommend Asus Xonar DG sound card. Asus sound cards are more compatible with modern motherboards than Creative Sound Blaster Audigy. Personally I bought my Asus Xonar DGX for 35$ and it was good choice for me, this card is much better than Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Advanced EAX HD which I used earlier. I mostly play video games and Asus Xonar DGX works perfectly with headphones.
