Analog vs S/PDIF from computer (sopuli.xyz)

I have an older Sony amplifier I want to use for my computer, paired with some sort of speakers. While planning, I'm thinking: should I just use my motherboard's line out to the amp, or would I be better utilising the S/PDIF header on my mobo to get the audio digitally to the amp?

You're right - not really. But coax can carry a much higher bitrate at longer distance at lower cost
