Since I have no clue about them. Someone select one for me, I do not have any speakers YET, make it as cheap as possible, Audigy would be nice. I do gaming/teamchat mostly. *Don't comment on BestBuy, It's closest and I know they have quality items* Sound Card List
if you don't mind a low end card, remember that most sound cards are just fluff beond what is needed unless you have a really good suround sound system and do sound work. I have a Philips PSC 604 soundcard, I got it from Fry's Electronics for a cheap price $20(including the software). I like this card, it has done everything I wanted, freed a bit of my processing power as well. if you want a dirt cheap one I suggest what I have (or the next model of it) mine supports 3d surround sound, has decent sound quality, noticeably better than the integrated sound that came with this computer when I got it in november if for some odd reason you need to drive the software w/ it, here is the driver http://soundcard.free-driver-download.com/...ME-2000-XP.html philips dynamic edge 4.1 PSC 604 http://www.epinions.com/pr-Sound_Cards_Phi...isplay_~reviews
