sound blaster play! 3 OR audigy 5.1 sb1570 (for GAMING)

The nice thing about gearing up to play games is that "fidelity" and "accuracy" are not really an issue (and if they are, things are extremely broken)

I'd probably lean toward a USB solution just because it will probably have less noise, but I don't think it matters - at least not between these two choices.
