You would still receive the premium audio benefits from the HDMI output, even without a DAC on the motherboard. The HDMI connection provides the audio stream directly to your display, bypassing the need for a separate DAC.

Hdmi is digital and disregards any dac your pc uses, opting instead for the dac of the device you connect it to.

Absolutely, that's the idea I had as well, though I'm hoping there was a way to skip it. Still, having a DAC is great for analog audio connections.

You can't capture analog sound from a digital device unless you use the right equipment!
