wow, those are two things i've never seen before. Both are pretty cool, but it looks like, for your money, you should go with the internal card. If all you had was a laptop, then the external unit would be your only choice, but if your willing to open up your box and slap the card in, do it.

As for still needing your old card, it looks like this one blows it away. Keeping your old one may even cause conflicts, so it may be better to keep out.

If you currently use speakers or headphones for pc media, I'm not sure how that would work. I don't know those acronyms they are using, like ADAT, AES, etc. You might want to look into that, or not even worry about it, and see what it comes with, as far as output.

i've heard Maudio makes pretty good stuff. The internal card is Creative (the Microsoft of the PC Audio world - booo), but its up to you.
