Question on Sound Card for Dell Laptop

kemet64 · May 19, 2004, 07:36 PM

Okay, I am looking at getting the Dell Inspiron XPS Laptop. I am basically replacing my main computer with a laptop, so i need it to be able to play games still.

The choices for Sound Card are None or Creative Audigy 2NX External USB. When it says none, does that mean that the laptop will not be able to make sound? And if it can, with "None" will that cause problems with games.

Thanks

The laptop will have intergrated..so basically just something simple and onboard. Do you know what chipset the laptop will have?
