    Hi all. I have a buttkicker from when i had my PS3 setup. I have seen on here that separate sound cards are needed, however as i'm not running speakers at the minute as the audio is through the rift headphones can i just connect this to the pc and use it as it has its own amp and crossover etc.

    I cant remember if i have to select the output for sound as i'm sure the audio comes through the HDMI port, which is leaving the sound card free.
