I am looking for sound cards that use the VIA24 Envy chipset.
I have one of these Chaintech's...It uses the VIA24 Envy but it seems there are different versions with some being better than others...Is this one of the better versions ???

I am also looking at the M-Audio 5.1 Revolution...I have heard but have not been able to confirm it uses a VIA24 Envy chipset.
I have owned the Revolution 7.1 but have heard the 5.1 has better DAC's.
I am not concerned with gaming performance as I no longer game on my computer...X-Box 360 and Wii handles all that business...So music is what I am looking for.
I would like a "audiophile" type sound card...Any suggestions other than Creative as I gave up on them after fighting with X-Fi Vista drivers.
