Hi there

Any recomendations for a soundcard for the hp pro liant n50l?

I have converted one to xbmc and currently plugged it in to the tv eith an hdmi port from a gpu.
I need a soundcard as I have a elcheapo usb soundcard running through the suround sound that runs seperately from the tv.

As far as I can see it will only take a low prifile pci-e slot.

Could any body help out.

Do you need the soundcard, what is it connecting to? You can just pass sound through the HDMI port.

The hdmi cable is going straight to the tv
I currently have a 3.5 jack split to 2rca ports in the surrond sound amp
There is no space for the hdmi in the surround sound

I am looking at the asus xonar, it looks like a viable option

Just make sure that it has the correct interface. AFAIK the N54L has an express slot, not sure about the N50L.

as far as I know the N50l does havea pci -e slot and it must be low profile.
