running a HP z820 workstation, Buster Mate. onboard sound does not cut it. I need more volume, and 5.1 stereo would be great I have a couple free PCIe slots What sage advice can I get here? Internal vs USB Brand? budget is modest, I tell myself under $100 thanks, Peter == I did not do my homework and bought a Sound Blaster Audigy Fx for $40. I am getting ready to return it, I could not even get it to work on Windows 10!

This will hardly matter if your audio setup can't reproduce that or you can't tell the difference (I probably can't). In any case, a device with a hardware mixer allows more flexibility in playing audio from several sources without relying on pulseaudio or ALSA's dmix.
