Since we're talking about audio devices, is it
ALWAYS better to use an add-in PCI Audio card than to use the onboard RealTek?
Opinions and explanations, please.
[Just for the record, I have a C-Media 7.1 PCI card here sitting on the shelf. I've used it in other systems in the past but never really saw any noticable difference in performance over the onboard RealTek device.]
EDIT: I decided to post a poll....
