403852 2005-11-12 21:43:00 I have a motherboard with AC97 Realtech sound chip or capabilities built into it. I also have a Audigy sound card (the first one) which is in its bag. Both have EAX but the AC97 Audio has eight channel sound (which is not big deal as I only have two speakers anyway).

My question is which of these is better? Would istalling the card give me a better qaulity sound, also would using the Audigy card take some of the load off the CPU?

Thanks

AC97= Chair from the warehouse that cost $20

SB Audigy= 4 person leather couch, with 2 hot bints sitting on it waiting for you, One has a dozen cold beers and a Pizza, the other has a bottle of massage oil.
