      Above is a link that explores the difference in sound quality between a Realtek codec chip and some stand alone DAC’s costing up to £2000.

      I just happen to have the chip they tested on my motherboard 😁

        There is a debate about 16 vs 24 bit sound and Direct Stream Digital in there too.

          If yer PC is set up properly then the difference between 16bit and 24 bit is tiny. If no one told you, you would not notice.

          Got the T shirt.

          I have a few studio 24 bit masters and same 16 bit CD. For get it, Its tiny. But with 24 bit on higher volume the room starts to join in. Callateral noise I suppose.
