Question : Problem: Old Sound Card vs New Onboard sound
|
|
I'm putting together a new PC and decided to use my old sound card, but after looking at my motherboard, I'm wondering if I might be better off without my sound card.
My old sound card: Sound Blaster Live! Value Dell OEM (Model: CT4780)
My motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813130081 Onboard Audio Audio Chipset Realtek ALC888 HD Audio Audio Channels 8 Channels
Which is better?

I would opt for the onboard in this situation. My reason? The Dell CT4780 is notoriously hard to find proper drivers for when outside of the DELL sphere. The onboard also has more capability than the old card.
