EPOX 8k7a onboard sound

[Nox1]

I just ordered the EOPX 8k7a motherboard and was just curious as how the onboard AC97 Digital Audio compares to my Sound Blaster Live!.

I've read here on the forum that disabling it in the bios is a piece of cake if I don't like it.

Thanks for any responses.

Use the SB Live...haven't had any of those 686b SB LIVE problems using this motherboard.

ANY on-board sound is crappy compared to SB Live! except maybe KK266's 4.1 hardware sound.
