Please, why must you make these polls? Decide for yourself, or go to an appropriate tech forum.

Don't put in your first choice if you shouldn't even bother considering it...

I would go with the Sound Blaster X-Fi, but that's only on this list. You should have a bigger list. (Don't you dare post another poll...)

you have to ask? anything integrated is on the chipset. anything on the chipset other than whats needed is a waste and slow. well other then certain things are directly on the chipset but still.

Actually with the newer Nvidia 550's and up. Intergrated audio is pretty good. Since it runs 96khz 24bit instead of 48khz 20bit.

AC.97 is out.

integrated audio is getting better, but still is problematic... at least, mine is.

as previously mentioned, the X-FI is the most advanced out there, in terms of gaming...however I've heard a lot of people are not happy with Creative's X-FI drivers for vista. Not sure if this has been addressed yet or not. As Kim mentioned, do some research. It's pretty damn easy and is a lot faster than waiting for replies in a thread.

edit: if I'm not mistaken, the xtreme music is discontinued and being replaced by the xtremegamer.
