Unless you are and audiophile you don't need to worry about it. Get some good quality powered speakers.

If your computer does not have 5.1 surround capability then yes you will need to get a card. Check your motherboard or computers manual.

Sorry. I cannot help on this one. The Creative Labs SB0570 sound card I bought is installed in a custom built desktop running XP. As of now, well satisfied with it. What it will do with Win &, I cannot say.

do i have to have a DJ program in order to use this or any other device such as an external sound card?

Plug the attached sound cable to the port for your sound card and the usb cable into a usb port. there is NO need for the white and red cables at all. The sound from the computer will go thru through the hdmi port via the attached sound cable

It will do everything, from what I can tell, that a built-in sound card will do. The sound card on my laptop went out and I bought and used a Sabrent USB sound card as a replacement. It did everything my built-in did, so I imagine the PCI one will do the same. You might ask Sabrent at http://sabrent.com/support/ I'm sure they'll confirm it.

I don't think so. The audio jacks (both front and back) that came with the computer are hard wired to the motherboard and once you enable the sound card, those are disabled. I bought the card my built in sound card failed. I was hoping the new card supported EQ function but it does not thus the audio/music sound like crap. I eventually swapped computers with my wife and gave her the Creative card as she can't hear the difference. I was disappointed the this card performance.

There are no built in speakers. Sound Card produces great sound but byo speakers

It does not have a discrete sound card. It does come with integrated audio and audio ports built into the motherboard.

You will need an external soundcard. The more ports you need the more expensive though. I would look into something like the M-Audio Fast Track Ultra High-Speed 8x8 USB 2.0 Interface if you can shell out the price.

You do not need a sound card to enjoy great spin with this mobo. But the on-board sound is not the highest quality, if this is what you want then grab a sound card as well. Otherwise, it's not necessary.

Only 5.1. Might try looking at HT Omega. Much better cards, better sound and real customer support. I returned this sound blaster card because my onboard sound was superior.

no onboard sounds but offers extensive sound banks thru software program (included)

No sound card needed. Plug in and listen. I use my iPad and iPhone as well as my MP3 player with CDs. They're phenomenal for the price. And, they're really cool looking!

Yes, a GOOD sound card will fix the problem. I have been using sound blaster since it first came out

Yes, I believe so. But, there really isn't a need for a sound card, because this board already comes with a SupremeFX Formula sound card onboard.
