My new rig is described in my signature. Can anyone recommend a good sound card and speakers. More specifically what do I need to look for and why shouldn't I use my onboard audio? Thanks in advance for your help.
 
creative x-fi platnium. or creative audigy 2 zs.
+1 on the speakers.
 
Budget is fluid, looking more mid range than anything. This is goin in a small room so I didn't plan on goin more than 2.1. I am new to this so I'm kind of curious as to why a sound card is needed when MOBO's come with on- board sound. Fill me in please.
 
I have these 2.1 speakers... I luv em... They will get freakin loud...
My wife always gettin on to me cuz she cant sleep while im at war lol ;)

BTW On board works great BUT if u play a game and the number of sounds get over like 20... ur FPS drops BIG TIME... with a true sound card it eleminates that problem...

I Just got the cheap Audigy from walmart like 30$ all u need if ur goin 2.1

So a cheap sound card will take away the FPS problem?
