Is a sound card worth it?

[Wildside]

the X-Fi XtremeGamer is good when it works well. I'm using the beta ones that came out Sept 07 n those are best ones right now.

get this one hehehe, i wish to get it:

Newegg.com - ASUS Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe 7.1 Channels 24-bit 192KHz PCI Express Interface Audio/Video Enhancement Combo Card - Sound Cards

Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD-MA ftw!
