Creative SB0230 Soundblaster audigy card, better than my onboard sound?

Here is a link to the card I have(not onboard obviously):

http://www.compgeeks.com/details.asp?invtid=sb0230-u

I have a Chaintech VNF3-250(Nividia Nforce3) motherboard with a chaintech multimediacard(not a true sound card, it has it's own mini- pci port and this thing pretty much supplies S-brackets as the main purpose)....

The audio onboard is Nofrce2 audio I believe and I recieved this SB0230 Creative Soundblaster Audigy card with EAXHD support and 1394 port from a friend.

I was wondering if I should install the card or stick with onboard(which also has EAX)?

BTw, where can I find drivers for this thing? Creative's site? Last time I looked I didn't see any drivers for a audigy card alone(all I saw were things like LS or Live).

Thx for the help.

the sound quality of this card will be far greater than your onboard sound
