Since the difference between OnBoard sound cards and individual solutions for the PCI slot can still be heard despite the current increase in quality for OnBoard soundcards, there is still a really large market for these sound cards.
Auzentech has announced in a press release that the company is currently working on a sound card which will be called "Auzen X-Fi HomeTheather HD".

The new sound card will broadcast all newer HD sound formats, i.e. DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD, directly from the bitstream to a receiver. The chip in the "Auzen X-Fi HomeTheather HD" comes from Creative and can process EAX 5.0. In addition, it is reported to be the first PCIe card that is fully compatible with HDMI-1.3a, which means that it is possible to play back a BluRay film with 24p, for example, and play back the sound at the same time without additional "downsampling ".
