It's going to become increasingly more difficult to find boards without onboard whatever. It's just getting too cheap. When you can add sound to a MB for $2, it's cheaper to manufacture one model, than set up manufacturing and distribution for two models.

Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.
