I bought some V-MODA Crossfade LP2's a few months ago and will be buying a new computer where I can't have a sound card because it's a ITX board. With this in mind, I was going to look at buying a nice amp to make up for the lack of a sound card. What options do I have?

Fiio E10, USB-DAC-Amp, $55-$60
Basic 2-channel stereo audio,  bypasses motherboard's built in audio
 
Nuforce uDAC-2, USB-DAC-Amp, $80-$100, bypass motherboard's built in Audio
 
Fiio E17 USB/optical/coaxial- DAC - Amp, $105-$140
The Fiio e17 will allow you to still use the features of the motherboard's built in audio.

For close to 200 I think the Aune T1 would be hard to trump!

+1 the T1. You can roll tubes also. 
Bravo audio have very cool amps for under $200
