you know anything about shielding? that's the thing it's used to try and avoid those problems, also don't forget one is built-in, the other one is an addition, something that passes through another BUS (usb), try and think about anything that comes with that.

results?

There's no way on earth any 5$ usb audio card could be better than any motherboard built-in audio card

this is the easiest way to show you what i mean, after this im done, stay in your ignorance and presumption, i don't care

the thing is most of those are like that because they're not engineered to work optimally and give you hd audio, they're just made to be used in emergencies or temporarily, oh and anyway my usb audiocard is this one which is probably one of the best you can find around at that price

What are you talking about, the motherboard itself doesn't do shit, there a section which is related to the audio part, and everything is done by that

that is my motherboard, and for the record i use a pci-ex audiocard

no it's not, please if you don't know what u're talking about, you shouldn't talk about it about it

this is my 5$ USB audio card

Stop talking only about chipsets, it's not the only part that counts, on those usb things there's no space for anything else but the chip, the 2 audio jacks and the usb plug, you don't get it, do you?

It's not only about the chipset they use, what are you talking about, also if that costs 10 cents on a 400$ dollars what do you think they'll put in a 5$ thing?

What you're saying is that this thing up here, is probably better than the built-in audio chipset of any motherboard, included that one you posted. Do you actually know what u're talking about?

do we want to discover together what's in that thing?

no, just to show that what's being said is bullshit

what motherboards are you talking about? 20$ ones? pretty much every decent motherboard ~70$ has a decent onboard audio chipset, or at least better than pretty much any usb audio card existent. Also the PCI audio cards are surely better, but also because the PCB three times the size allows the manufacturers to add filtering and other stuff you cannot do on a few cms x few cms PCB the usb audiocards use, that thing you could do on a motherboard.

usb can't be worse than intregrated? are you sure? i say they're almost always worse than integrated chipset

because pci ones cost more

to be honest i don't really think using a usb audio card would be better than using the built-in one, some of them might be bad, but most of them are always preferable to any usb crap

not that bad

go home boy ure drunk

never said snowball or zalman were better, actually the zalman costs 10 times less and it's not that worse, i'm pretty sure there are mics which are as good as that and they probably cost far less, that's what i'm trying to say

the modmic would've been good for the money if it was like 20 dollars, or something around that

what ruined the world of videogames in a nutshell?

you're allowed to do whatever you want, also say whatever you want, but what you said there was just not true, 50$ for such mic isn't good, the opposite, you can have something with the same quality for much less than that
