Looking for a sound card

[gaurav77]

hello ,
please suggest me some good sound cards available providing the best surround sound experience for watching movies , listening to music and gaming , having headphone amp also .
I mainly prefer asus and creative. They should be easy on the pocket too , because i'm not in doing those professional studio things , just for entertainment .

Depends on your budget. check out Asus Xonar DX.

A Creative Audigy Fx would work well. You may find you won't use surround for music that much, though, because it is best for gaming and locating things like gunshots, but doesn't add much to music.

Sound blaster Z or sonar dsx if you want 7.1 both are on $80 price range so it wont impact wallet so much.

If you want cheaper than $80 then a audigy fx as ewok93 said or sonar dg.
