While it's over your price range, I just ordered the Asus Xonar DX the other day for less than $90 shipped to my home. I have heard nothing but good reviews for that card. Here's some user reviews from newegg: Asus Xonar DX. It has 7.1, HD audio front panel connectors, the sound from what I've read is really good, and it also brings a Toslink adapter so you can connect the optical.

I should be getting it on Monday, so I'm excited
