sound card ?

[teengeek88]

does a sound card regulate how much sound you can put out, or is it only dependant on the speakers?

im thinking about getting Z-560's and i am using nf2 onboard sound

the loudness won't be different but the quality can be

i've heard that the sound on the nforce chipset is pretty good though

ok so if i have the Z-560's i can use all of the power in them then?

Yes you can. Just be sure that windows volume is up all the way for the amp in your speakers to get the strongest signal. BUt I don't recomend this is it seems to over power sound cards causing sound quality to be lost. I have windows volume a little under max.(Still gets pretty damn loud in here when I max out my Z680s)

Alsi, mess around with the equalizer and crossfader to get the best sound for the type of music you will be listening too.
