on-board soundcard vs better

My computer has the ultra-generic onboard soundcard (AC97?) that I can't even stand to listen to music through. It generates pops or clicks. I'm much happier with the EMU 0202, if for no other reason that being able to adjust input levels to various software via a front panel knob. That and a much better s/n ratio was worth $99 to me since I use digital modes much more than SSB.
