MSI K7N2G- ILSR

I just bought this Mobo and I was thinking about getting a SB Audigy 2 for sound until I started reading about the nForce onboard APU. I have also learned that this chip supports "SoundStorm" with the ACR slot. I am not new to hardware but I have not upgraded in a while and I guess I have been left behind.... Could someone please tell me which option is best for overall sound (Games, Music, DVD).....

1. Audigy 2
2. a soundstorm Card... (and if this is best where is it?)
3. The onboard APU

That board has the "soundstorm" already there. Just connect the sound output bracket to the appropriate headers, install the software/drivers (from the CD) and you're done.

Well, you have to connect the speakers....Front L&R go to the ATX connector panel (along w/ mic). Rear L&R and Center+woofer are on the sound bracket.
