Sadly, I can't give you a definite answer because I simply don't know enough about the two, but from what I've heard, the Audigy is really just an all-rounder card with just about every connection you can think of (midi, phono, firewire, spdif, etc), but only works in stereo or 5.1 - no multitrack recording, which is what the M-Audio cards are better at.
Hope that helps :) |

PLEASE !!! DON'T BUY INTEL !!!
I work in a computer shop I'M building computer and Intel is really not the best right now, it was before but not anymore.
AMD 64 kick ass and are ten thousand time faster for less money.
I'd say look for something like this
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ ( or more )
Mother board ASUS A8N-E ( or A8N-SLI if you got money )
Whatch the brand of your HD don,t buy Maxtor.
Western Digital, Seagate are good
For Sound card PLEASE don't buy Creative, there sound quality suck.
M-Audio is good or even the integrated sound on the Asus board are really good and are way better then creative, you just don't have as much input you would have had on a creative card.
Video card is good
REALLY Intel 64 bits sucks ass and intel dual core are even worst thrust me. And you won't pay a lot more in fact you will pay less for the AMD |
