pc to dac?


Ok I have been to a couple stores and talked to some people they seem to push me to what they have not what is the best. I want to start using a PC or Mac for a source to a DAC. Right now I use a cary 303/300 which I like but can I get the same or better sound out of a dac and pc? What is the best set up. I would like to stay under 5k for the dac 3k would be better but tell me what I need to spend. I guess if I get a DAC also I could dump the cary 303 for just a cheaper transport, correct?

My system is
Vandersteen 5a
Aseticx clyspo tube pre amp
quicksilver v4 tube monoblocks amps

I am purchasing the Berkeley Alpha dac. But I also need a really good Sound card in your PC. Ihave an Audio 24/192 but was adviced to get a Lynx. The Berkely is one of the best I have heard & the cost is very good for what is does do.
