I only bought this card to increase the sound quality for listening to music and DVD's on my laptop.
If you use the standard audio outputs on most laptop cards you know that sound quality SUCKS at best.
First listen after installing this card and you will be blown away. Unreal image, accurate across the spectrum. Deep, punchy bass on Ultrasone HiFi 650 headphones. Had no idea this kind of quality was available for a mobile system.
