Need a cheap sound card for the asus p6t v2 but will get the job done, it'll have to fit with two large GPU's, (4890's) in crossfire, any suggestions?

Depends on what you want from your sound. If you're after a "cheap" card then why not just use the onboard sound?

Alternatively you're looking at a low-end Creative but you'd be best getting a PCI-E card so you can put it in the PCI-E 1x slot out of the way of the GPUs (I'm planning the same thing), otherwise there's only 1 PCI slot you can use between the two GPUs.

Of course it has onboard sound http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P [...] templete=2 how did you even come to think that it doesn't?

Oh, haha my bad...i must have been reading too fast and misread the onboard video chipset as sound card...Oops lol, thx gulli

Btw, how do you change sound cards? Do you have to like delete all files of the onboard sound card or such? Or can you just stick in a X-Fi sound card and you'll be fine?

You can just put it in the slot, connect your speakers to it and install the driver, it works pretty much like a videocard where onboard video gets disabled as soon as the motherboards senses a videocard in the PCI-E slot.

Try the on-board sound before buy a card. On-board sound has come a long way since AC'97. I think that you will be surprised.

If you are not satisfied with the onboard sound then the only card i can recommend w/o breaking the bank is the HT-Claro... It is superior to the XtremeGamer and costs more or less the same....
