nForce 2 sound is as good as any non-pro PCI Sound card (i.e. Audigy, Game
Theatre, SB Live etc etc )
It's 5.1 surround sound - superb quality - no irq problems - basically - the
dogs kahunas.
Details here
http://www.racesimcentral.net/#apu_t...
o_processing_unit ( nforce 1 had same audio unit as nforce 2 has )
" This APU comes with features that blow away every sound card that's
currently on the market, which is even more impressive when you consider
that the APU is integrated into nForce's south bridge 'MCP' and not a
discrete card "
and http://www.racesimcentral.net/
" The sound system is not exactly new, but it's still one of the best that
the market has to offer. Note here that the APU is part of the chipset, and
not a separate sound card. "
in conclusion. HELL YEAH!
