i'd like to upgrade from realtek onboard audio, can i get anything good under 75 dollars? i have an audigy 2 but i don't use it anymore cause it sounds really bad in vista and i get crackling noises in the left channel. kx drivers do not work in vista either so it's time to move on to something new. i'd like to avoid getting a creative card if i can help it. thanks.
edit: i can get a xonar dx for 60 dollars after rebate. it has a nice dac on the front outputs it seems. how well will it drive my headphones though? how are the vista 64 bit drivers?
