Hi, i am thinking to buy to buy a new sound card for my pc, because the old one is not working fine, so anyone has a good brand in mind?

Not a question I have seen in a long time. Used to be a huge selection of sound cards in days past.  But so many computers are coming out with rock solid sound systems that the availability of good sound card options has declined a lot.

 

Instanly I would always recommend the Sound Blaster cards.  

 

However, Best Buy only has 2 choices and they are from Auss.  Which makes good quality components. 

 

And they only come in 2 form factors. PCI and PCI Express. 

 

The first thing you will need to determine is what kind of slot you have available on your computer.

Do you really need high, fancy sounding audio or are you good with 2 speakers and a subwoofer? The answer lies in an inexpensive USB sound adapter that installs in seconds versus taking the machine apart and adding in a sound card.
