What motherboard do you own? Soundcards are mostly a gimmik and your board might have kickass sound already

You'll probably profit more from using the integrated sound card as the DAC and then using an external amplifier like the Schiit Magni.

I don't sadly have "kickass" sound already, and the integrated one is s***. I have a Intel DZ68ZV motherboard. I need a soundcard

Well, the cheapest I could find was the Creative Sound Blaster Z. And, on average it comes in at $100.

Looks like it supports 7.1.

 

Don't waste your money on a stupid sound card.

Yeah, but when I upgraded to 8.1 it no longer works, nothing on the back, I'm stuck with front IO sound right now
