Is alc 897/892 much worse than s1200a ?

[matpc]

Hello

i had a previous board with s1200a and got one am5 with alc 897/892 from msi

I´m wondering , would i feel the difference ? i´m not audiophile or anything extreme

I have a h2232d headset ( yes it is very entry / budget )

i know i probably won´t feel difference but i just wanted to assure since the msi board has superior vrm than asus

thanks

Don't worry about it, you won't notice much, if any, difference between the onboard sound nowadays.

Some people arent so sensitive to differences so they cant tell, I can tell you my ALC892 is noticeable compared to discrete sound, my old board had ALC1220 on it, I could test it with headphones.

For me its less noticeable in speakers vs my headphones.
