I just bought an Astro A50 headset ($299). It uses SPDIF and is 7.1 dolby.

My motherboard supports 7.1 it says, but I think I could get better sound with a better card than the onboard one. Can someone recommend me what to get?

I'd prefer something I can go buy in a store (Best Buy or Microcenter) unless I really need to I'l ge online like Newegg or other.

I am thinking around $100 should be my budget?

I game, listen to music, watch television, surf the web.
