It depends on the codec. If your audio is using a chipset that allows bit-perfect, then it might be better than the audigy, but I thought there was a way with audigy cards to do something similar called "bit accurate".
On my older motherboards, I thought the Audigy card sounded better even with spdif than onboard, but newer boards with HD definition codecs seem pretty equivalent in terms of digital out only. When using digital out, really there are only a few things to consider that might impact sound quality, clocking and jitter.
