I'm considering buying a soundcard, but I want to know if it's really worth it - and if it is worth it, what are some good sound card options for my Cyclops rig.
I'm currently using the Karajan modual (on my DFI motherboard) without any problems, but I'm wondering if getting a dedicated sound card will take some of the load off the motherboard/CPU. Or will having another device using another IRQ cancel out any benefits gained in that department?
Does a soundcard make a big difference in gaming? I'm not doing audio editing or studio work.
Like I said, I'm still only considering a sound card and need some more input on the matter.
