Important questions.
I'm not going to blindly recommend soudncards like the rest of the people here:

itzhoovEr,

what games do you play?
Do you mainly use your computer for gaming or listening to music?

ASUS Xonar Essence or Auzentech X-Fi Prelude are probably what you should be looking at.

Essence: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16829132010
Prelude: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16829156005

Those are just about the best on the market. If you play a lot of EAX games, you should get the Prelude. If not, I would get the Essence.
