Laptop spdif vs usb converter

What option will offer the highest peformance. A USB converter with reclocking or an inbuilt card to output spdif? Or can i stream AES-EBU from a laptop?
I need to feed Genelec monitors with inbult DAC.
Thanx

I believe the HiFace gives you the best bang plus it is not tied into one laptop. I have been using it for couple of months with great result.

Simply the best USB to S/PDIF converter out there. Does not support formats other than Redbook, however.
