Could you be more specific what you need the card for?

Audio recording? Surround sound output? Gaming?

The Mac Pro comes with "on-board" audio, and I do know that the back of the Mac Pro has an optical audio out. I don't yet know if you can get 5.1 out of these machines yet or not. Also, it's got 4 PCI express slots. So adding an atermarket sound card would require one that is PCI Express. I don't know of any sound cards right now that come in the PCI Express flavor. Surely not Creative, as they can't even get driver releases out in a timely manner.

Hopefully the "pro" cards will make PCI Express variants, specifically those cards for music recording.
