hi guys,
I've been browsing and reading a bit, but still am unsure of what to do. Anyway, I currently use the onboard sound which comes with my nForce2 board (SoundStorm) and it seems decent enough powering my DT 531's by itself - a decent cheapish amp like a pimeta may be on the way but thats a different issue.
I'm thinking about getting a sound card but am unsure what to get. The Chaintech seems to be getting rave reviews on here but I'm not sure of what availability's like here in Australia. How's the Chaintech for gaming? Will it be much better than my current onboard (read SoundStorm) solution?
What other (reasonably affordable) cards are out there which will serve my purposes for gaming, movies and music.
Thanks for reading
