Sound Card

Hi larry,

I am considering purchasing a new sound card. I have a Dell dimension 3000 with an onboard sound card. I have 2 desktop speakers (which arent that great). I was wondering if you could recommend a decent sound card (PCI) for me.
Here is some DXdiag info...

I would like the sound card to be able to provide high quality sound for music and playing games (must have Mic jack).

Thanks a gizzillion for your time,
