Sound Card / Acc / Hr ?

Does using a usb dac count as using a soundcard? I picked the first option fyi.
I'm pretty sure it's not a good idea to use a PCI/PCIe sound card for rhythm games due to the amount of additional delay they add (I'm not quite sure about USB DACs/cards, but that's still an additional device that the audio needs to pass through).

It's actually lower delay on audio than most integrated mobo sound cards.YayMii wrote:

Well, I know for sure that the Asus Xonar series is infamous for having high amounts of latency (and also seem to be the only cards available where I live).
Another thing to keep in mind is that many of these cards advertise low-latency ASIO support, but this API isn't supported by osu!, so it doesn't really affect the game.

Sound cards on older motherboards z68 / p67 are not quite up to par with current devils canyon or skylake integrated mobo sound so, it helps give less of a delay. I'm using a sound blaster Z btwYayMii wrote:

I wouldn't since its traveling over usb instead of an analog signalPhilantropist wrote:

I think for anyone below 5k pp it's completely unrelated to your soundcard whether you hate HR or not as there's more to hate about HR than just the OD...
The poll design is not very good either as you can't draw any conclusions with the singular options being unlinked in the poll.~

Thought about that afterwards but im way too lazy to make a google thingy and I mean I can sorta draw conclusions by a two way anova (i believe thats the right statistical analysis) but once again too lazy to get to work but I get the gist of what I wanted... I just wish more people had sound cardsEndaris wrote:

Is there a difference at all? (knowing you can adjust the offset to compensate bad latency)
you can't rly, you can only adjust the music - hitwindow offset, not the offset of all soundsDreamcast wrote:

if you play without hitsounds it's doable
