onboard audio

I have a question about onboard motherboard audio for a living room gaming PC. I have one of the Asus ROG motherboards with the onboard "ROG Supreme FX" audio solution. As of right now, the audio signal travels from the RTX 4080 Super to the TV (via HDMI) and from TV to the soundbar (via optical...

Hello, Today out of nowhere my speakers stop working and from time to time a can hear a little sound as if trying to sound but not working. No ports working (I verified rear and front) and if I put a video on YouTube and go to sounds it shows the bars moving as if everything was okay but still...

If I get a USB sound card will I disable onboard sound and still plug my speakers into back panel and will my Bluetooth headphones work?

Hey all, I hope this is the right forum to ask this in! If someone could please help me understand which audio set up is better, it'd be a huge help! I used to play mainly on console and have a pair of Astro A40s with the mixamp. I have connected the mixamp through an USB to my PC for a while...

Is the Audigy 2 ZS card worth using instead of onboard chip today for watching TV, music, and games on the newer boards and the ones made in the last 10 years? I was given two cards for free and thought of putting them in my two PC. One is from 2010 and one from 2016. Also, I have two sets of...

First, sorry for my english! I want to buy a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-M20x, but I don't know if my motherboard's audio is enough for them. I currently have the Superlux HD669 and they are loud enough, but I don't like the way they sound and how they fit on my head. I don't want to change my...

Hello, I am very confused on what is better for my gaming experience. I have an Msi X470 Gaming Pro Carbon which has a Realtek Alc 1220, which is advertised as a decent and good onboard audio chip. My question is if I should buy a gaming usb headset with its own sound card like the Kraken...

My onboard audio recently has encountered some issues and I am hearing constant clicking in some instances in my audio other times it sounds fine. This especially apparent when changing the volume. I am wondering would a sound card fix these issues or could this be driver related?

Ok so here's the thing. I'm looking for a new set of headsets that by not breaking the bank, still offer quite good sound quality. Thing is, I've decided for the Coolermaster MH752s (Rebrand and sligth upgrade of the TakStar's Pro 82s) (If you got any other recommendation I'll gladly check them...

All, I am in the process of creating a new PC build and have hit a snag. I have a Corsair H100i v2 water cooler which has three fan connectors and whatever is seen in the picture below. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1AVL4lAH8rwUTIzY3lEU3UzQ21LY3JYa3pza2JvMzV6bk1z...

I'm looking for a budget replacement for my old 6670 and i've found a 280 and a 285 for approximately the same price. I've done some research but honestly, the results really aren't consistent. Some benchmark videos show that the 285 comes on top, others give it to the 280. I'm playing on a...

Hi there. So I've bought myself an Audigy Fx PCIe card a while ago. Card works great, and the software is amazing. Only thing that I've only really started to notice...that the 5.1 doesn't entirely work. What I mean by that, is the in windows and the software itself, it can recognize the rear...
