From: Alex PADOLY on 19 Jul 2010 14:40 At the moment, it would seem that it is preferable to buy an external sound "card" USB to have a sound with a new generation of PC (64 bits): http://www.terratec.net/fr/produits/technical-data/produkte_technische_daten_fr_52787.html Regards. > Message du 19/07/10 16:25 > De : "Dominique Pautrel" > A : "Alex PADOLY" > Copie à : > Objet : Re: CARTE SON PCI EXEPRESS > > > Hi Alex, > > Le 19/07/2010 16:08, Alex PADOLY a écrit : > > > > > > Hi, > > I am going to do my PC and I look for to make it a compatible 100 % LINUX sound car on PCI EXPRESS, I readed the LINUX HARDWARE HOW-TO, it is not clear for me to choose a basic sound card on EXPRESS bus PCI recognized by LINUX. > > Thank you for your help concerning this delicate choice. > > Regards. > > Alex > > > > Une messagerie gratuite, garantie à vie et des services en plus, ça vous tente ? > > Je crée ma boîte mail www.laposte.net > > > > It seem like if you posted on a french list ! > Perhaps you've got more success if you post on the Alsa user list, > dedicated to audio cards : > > _______________________________________________ > Alsa-user mailing list > Alsa-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user > > Regards. > Dom. > > > > Une messagerie gratuite, garantie à vie et des services en plus, ça vous tente ?

Just don't get anything from Creative. You would have more choice if you went PCI instead of PCIe, and PCIe doesn't really have any particular benefits for sound cards (unless you are building a small form-factor computer that only has PCIe slots or something). Actually, unless you are doing something special with audio (producing music or DJing or something), it really makes sense to go with the onboard sound chip. Via Envy24 chips are good, as are most that conform to the Intel HDA spec (including the very common Realtek chips that implement that spec (ALC88x and ALC1200)) .

True, a card can get you better sound, but the modern onboard chips are darn good, unlike the ones from say, 6+ years ago which where pretty sad.

True, a card can get you better sound, but Intel, IIRC, tried at one point about 15 years ago to migrate most audio processing on-CPU. >> the modern onboard chips are darn good, unlike the ones from say, 6+ >> years ago which where pretty sad. >> > > But onboard soundchips are sometimes affected by interference/crosstalk from > other functions on the mainboard. > So, *if* the on-board sound is unacceptable *then* buy an sound card. -- Seek truth from facts. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
