which sound card?

this is half just to buy something new haha. and im using my dads speakers now. which are 4.1. and beat your x 540's in sound quality. i know from experiance and from the specs. so im thinking it might be worth it. anything better then my onboard is good. so forget the fact that i might be wasting my money. i just need something that will do a decent job. so i know a sound blaster audigy isnt an amazing card. but would it be decently better then onboard?

Well if you have the 4.1 then yes go for a sound card... but 2.1 don't bother.
 
ok so sound blaster audigy or something? i need like a few options that i can check out. can i have some decent models that are around 50 - 60 US dollars?
 
I have Realtek's HD 7.1 sound card built into my motherboard. I have to say, the sound is incredible. My speakers aren't 7.1, but when you've got ear-phones on it's incredible. I have to say.
 
Ok so im thinking ill probably get the Creative X-FI Xtreme Audio.

its not just a price thing, its availability and all that. cos im currently in india. its hard to get everything.

so this will be a decent card right? like i know that its not as good as an Xtreme Gamer Fatal1ty or anything. but its good right?

any personal experiances?
 
It has extreme driver issues. It's basically a Sound Blaster live with a lot of extra drivers and emulators. It is NOT worth $50 (or w/e you're paying for it).
 
so what about the soundblaster live 24bit external?
is that what your talking about?

for me its the same price... so would it be more worth it?
i dont really want an external sound card. but if its a better option then ill take it haha
 
i cant get that here. what about the soundblaster live! 24bit?
i can get the normal pci version.
i can also get the audigy value.
