Do they exist? I've tried the Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer card, which looked like it had the right connections in the store, but it turned out to be Intel HD front panel, which doesn't work with my case.
Basically, I just upgraded my machine's case to an Antec P180, which, unlike my last one, has front panel audio. Inside the machine I had a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Value, which sounded perfect, but had no hookups for the front panel. The motherboard has integrated AC97, so I tried that, the front panel works, but it sounds TERRIBLE (static in the headphones, tons of other interference, no clarity at any kind of volume)
Browsing Newegg, I don't see anything promising looking. A few have the right connector, but they don't specify if it's AC97 or Intel HD. Anyone know of a card? I don't really care how much it costs, as long as it's under like $120
