Hey all.
I'm building a new computer with a Gigabyte P45 DS3R. This features a Realtek ALC889a chipset.
I also have an old Sound Blaster Audigy 2 sitting in a static bag. I took it out of my old machine because I donated that to my dad and didn't think he needed 5.1 audio support.
I'm just curious to know which would be better.... the now ancient Audigy 2, or the fairly recent onboard chipset?
