Best Sound Card at 50$?

[austing]

Hey guys and girls,

I'm going to be getting a soundcard to go with my Logitech x530's.

So, I was wondering, what Soundcard can beat the BioStar Tz77xe3's onboard Realtek HD sound?

Note, I'm looking for a nice card at around 45-55$

Thanks,

Austin

Honestly man, I really wouldn't bother replacing the soundcard, its pointless. Most soundcards that don't cost a fortune are really just equivalent to onboard audio. Is your onboard audio really that bad?

I'm sure there are better than onboard, and I want better music quality.

I can notice diffrences between soundcards and onboard, I listen to alot of music haha.

^That's not what he was saying, dude.

There ARE sound cards that are better than onboard, but getting one for $50 isn't going to happen.

Also, aside from the fact that just listening to a lot of music doesn't mean anything, are your speakers and audio files both HD audio capable? If they aren't, it's even more of a waste.

Yeah, I'd say just get the speakers, save your cash and focus on more important rig upgrade brother.
