But when you hear the quality of the sound form a sound card, you will be blown away. It cannot be described how much better the sound gets, like going from onboard video to a dedicated video card. ![]()

I find that offensive!

Depends on the quality of the sound card. but even my $30 Creative Sound Blaster Live! sounds miles better than onboard. I can't even imagine the quality with A good set of speakers and an X-Fi Platinum or something. If you're considering getting a good sound card, definently go for it.

i dunno... my OB audio on my DFI (with the lil daughter card) sounds just like my 30 dollar 5.1 from SB and my OB audio is 8.1 i think. It just depends what your comparing.

A sound card will:
*Remove the crackleing/hissing noise from your speakers *Process audio so the CPU doesn't have to do it *Allow you to overclock higher Also a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS will: *Allow you place speakers in strange places and still have good sound, though THX software *Allow you to listen to EAX so games are a lot more realistic *Process special sound effects (example: female to male voice change) *There are more but I haven't found them yet I don't know about X-Fi, but it's supossed to be 10X better than an Audigy 2 ZS
