THX sound card to drive THX speakers

[Gerbits]

Do I need a THX sound card in order to drive THX speakers or my Realtek chip integrated on motherboard will drive them well?

Try them with Realtek first to avoid spending money unnecessarily.

Only consider installing a sound card if Realtek chip can't output enough audio channels to match your speaker setup, or you aren't happy with sound quality.
