Subject: Is Integrated Sound Adequate?
Hi all,
I'm planning to buy a new computer. With the rapid advancements in
motherboards and hardware generally I'm interested in people's thoughts
about whether it's still better to buy a dedicated sound card or have we
now reached the stage where using integrated sound on the motherboard is
adequate? I bought my current PC in July 2008 so it is about six years
old. I'm currently running a Creative sound card.
I've never used integrated sound on the motherboard on my home PC
before. Also I don't need the most expensive sound card available but I
don't want it to be too basic either. One feature I would like is the
ability to provide some type of virtual surround sound as I have limited
space where my PC is located and only room for a two speaker system.
I appreciate there is no right or wrong answer to this question but I
thought this list would be a good place to ask because there are bound
to be a lot of people who are a bit more fussy about audio quality etc.
Any feedback would be appreciated. Thank you.
Regards Steve.
