Does anyone know if the GT70 SPDIF output will be a digital or optical?

I'm planning for a DAC, look forward to see if I can connect it with toslink cable.....

Thank you very much!

It's optical. Once enabled in the realtek settings a red light starts pulsing inside the headphone jack. This cable should go:

Or if you have your own TOSLINK cable you'll need this adapter:
