For recording, good signal to noise ratio is important, and the four or
five internal cards I've used over the years have all been very poor in
this respect, maybe in the low 40s in dB.
USB devices I've tried have had much less noise, particularly if the
audio ground side is linked to the tower case independently of the USB
cable.
