[SOLVED] Can My Motherboard Run 250 Ohm Headphones??

[Britishmate]

Hello, I'm debating buying a new pair of headphones but want something a bit more high end. My price point is about £105. I've looked and found the beyerdynamic dt 990's and 880's. I have also found a few other ones but all seem to be 250 Ohms. I don't have enough money to buy the headphones and a DAC/AMP. I was hoping someone could help me out and see if my motherboard the Asrock Fatal1ty B450 Gaming K4 would be able to handle these.. Thanks.

Also if you have any other recommendations on other headphones I'm always up for some more options.

It can certainly feed the headphones by the phone-out plug - or using a front connector in the cabinet.

However - most headphones have much lower impdance than that (32'ish ohms are quite common) so the sound perceived volume would be low.
