Well I just caught wind that sound cards are a must... basically, so I thought why not, because my turtle beach headset gets crackling and cuts off when something beeps on a game like a bomb before it detonates on GTA IV for example or when something with the letter S is said, it crackles badly.
So yeah, 1) are the worth it and will this fix my problem?
2) What's the best one for cheap? Is it like a PSU where it's worth paying the extra?
3) will I need to plug headphone/mic devices directly into the soundcard's headphone/mic output to get the best audio quality or will it effect all headphone/microphone outs(like the front pannel on the case)?
I just want a card that will mean no distortion, decent enough quality and no cut offs... I'm not looking to hook up a 7.1 surround system and record studio quality sound XD
