@tyler @SK1ZM @blankdeblank they still make sound cards.
The big thing now is external sound cards, so it's not in a noisy computer chassis.✙ dcc :pedomustdie: :phear_slackware: likes this. -

I don't. I was a pc gamer for 20 years, constantly building and upgrading my pc from scratch. I never liked keyboard for gaming unless it's a RTS, which I never play since AoE2 came out. I always use a controller anyway.
I'll never forget the day I installed the pre order of New Vegas, after spending thousands of dollars on my custom build, and it wouldn't run because it needed a newer SOUND CARD (not the video card the fucking SOUND CARD) not a driver, a new fucking sound card which I don't even think is a thing anymore.
So I bought a new Xbox 360 for $200 and New Vegas ran fine right out of the gate, and I never looked back.In conversation permalink -

@tyler @SK1ZM @blankdeblank even international audio is usually more than good enough. They do a good job electrically isolating the sound. It's essentially a discrete sound card built into the motherboard for most motherboards.
Crazy stuff like 192 kHz/32-bit audio built into most motherboards.In conversation permalink ✙ dcc :pedomustdie: :phear_slackware: likes this. -

This goes back to how I mentioned you can average out the ± manufacturing tolerances to zero. This does assume a relatively normal distribution centered around zero but we're talking guitar pedals and not statistics in the chipfab industry so... In conversation permalink -

That's more the reasoning behind stacking stepper motor drivers in the astronomy community I believe, but stacking opamps is used to average out manufacturing tolerances for more accurate sound amplification. (the picture is actually from a guitar pedal using different amplifiers to create distortion with low noise but I digress)
