Personally I just use the build in sound chip on the Motherboard. But I don't have good speakers hooked up to my PC I just have a cheapo dell sound bar under my middle monitor. I don't watch movies or tv shows or play music on that computer so I've never felt the need to buy good speakers for it.

I do however have a 7.1 Surround Sound Corsair USB headset but this has its own sound chip in the remote control.
