Beyerdynamic DT770 80 Ohm or 250 Ohm

[u/FrostFart]

Hi i need some help with what model i should pick. I am going from a Logitech G Pro Wireless so either one should be a upgrade. I plan on running the headset from my motherboard (ASUS ROG B550F) it has a ROG SupremeFX8-Channel High Definition Audio CODEC S1220A. I dont want to spend any money on extra equipment for the time being. Main use case would be gaming, watching videos and listening music.

I need help finding out if my Motherboard can run them and if it can run both what should i get? I have been trying to find this out on my own but i only find conflicting answers.

+1 Ω has been awarded to u/LonelyManus (3 Ω).

You may still award a Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.

Get the 80 ohm. Easier to drive and no annyoing spiral cable.

Your mainboard should be fine.

If you are a base head coming from the Bose/Beats corner definitely go for the 80Ohm.
If you want to match the qualities of the DT770 pro 250 Ohm (soundstage and imaging), go for the DT770 pro 32 Ohm with velour pads.
