I am currently shopping for parts for my first build, and I plan to hook it up to my TV and stereo system (for movies and music) and maybe some moderate level gaming.
Here are the Mobo and CPU I've purchased so far:
ASUS M4A785-M 785G (AMD) - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131595
AMD Phenom 8750 Toliman 2.4GHz Triple Core - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103252
What sort of audio card should I be looking for? Or will the onboard audio be enough? My budget can accomodate up to $150, although I'd prefer to spend around $75 +/- $25
I have a 5.1 channel surround system, and although I'm not an audiophile by any means, I do appreciate quality sound, especially in movies and music.
Thanks for any suggestions!
