Does anyone have info on what can the audio chipset inside this laptop can deliver to the combo jack? Looking to buy some Sennheiser HD660S2 headphones and I need to know if the laptop is powerful enough or I'll need to get a separate AMP.
Searched anywhere for info about the power output & impedance the 3.5mm jack and couldn't find anything, not even ASUS support helped me (couldn't even find out what audio chip it has)...
Solved! Go to Solution.

Apparently the audio jack uses the Realtek ALC3251 chipset, but there is no datasheet on the internet to tell you what it can do.
I'll have to give up and just buy a 60€ USB-C AMP/DAC (Moondrop Dawn Pro) and call it a day. I find it kind of stupid that you can't find info about what components does the laptop you bought have inside....not even asus support can help you.
