ASUS P4T533 6 channel audio...??

[pball68]

How good is the Audio? I was going to buy a Sound Blaster Live 5.1 OEM to go in my new computer, but wonder now if I need it? I have a 4 speaker surround sound system with base and play alot of games FYI. Please let me know.

IIRC...the P4T533 has C-Media 5 point surround sound...whichc is as good as or better than the SB Live! 5.1...so save your $35 and use the onboard sound card...

It's a good quality chip, as used on some Herculese soundscards, but probably not implemented as well. I would expect good, accurate sound, but nothing "breathtaking".
