I have mixed suggestions from people. Some said that because I have the latest pc specs (i7 Haswell, ASUS Z87-PRO Motherboard) That I don't have to worry about the sound card as my onboard audio is just as good as other sound cards, some said I still need it. Anyway can someone please take a look at my motherboard onboard audio specs and see if it's good enough and no need for sound card? Thanks! Here are the specs:
