Default (Solved)Need a sound card. Around 100.00.

I need to buy a couple sound cards and need some ideas. Im running W7 Pro 64 on both pcs and card can either be pci or pci-e. Id like to not spend more than 200.00 on both. I have Klipsch promedia 2.1 on one and Z-560 Logitech on the other pc.
Thanks in advance.

How important are gaming features to you? Also how important is music quality?

One of the pcs. The one with the Logitech speakers will be for games. The other pc with the Klipsch speakers will be mainly for music and movies.

Get a X-Fi Forte for the gaming computer and one Xonar DX for the music/movies computer.
