That's what one of those computer gurus told me.. Use of a sound card will not improve your graphics performance, and if anything can drag it down a bit.

You're right.. I should have said that on-board sound is just fine for FSX...

With 2 dual slot GPUs and a wireless board I had nowhere to install my sound board. With the sound on the new boards I found I do not miss it anyway, but I also do no audio auditing either.

Well fsx does not have the most complicated of sounds. I used onboard for the longest time and finally got an audigy2 and I saw a decent improvement but all my friends were using onboard and they heard mine and they had new soundcards within the week. I guess you need something to compare it to to really see the difference.
