Sound card to drive Hyperx Cloud 3 headset

Picked up a pair today and was wondering if I should upgrade my aging Soundblaster Z internal sound card to make the most of them.

Any recommendations?

Picked up a Soundblaster G6 today.

Initial thoughts I'm impressed with the clarity of the sound and the audio positioning in FPS games like RB6:Siege.

Need to spend more time with settings:

Do they not come with their own USB audio dongle?

Yes but it's really trash. The quality is very poor in comparison to a dedicated sound card not to mention the volume is very quiet even at 100%
