I don't have any specific numbers for you, but DSD converters are really expensive.

The most important part for a project like this is a good AD converter (the PC doesn't matter in that regard, only the drivers of the soundcard --> RME is known for great drivers and hardware: I would know, I have a RME Fireface 800 and it sounds great).

Plus you would need a Phono pre-amp (some soundcards have phono preamps on board, but I doubt that they will sound as good as a standalone).

The other is a good Record player and the right tonearm.
