While that is theoretically true, in my own practical experience it
hasn't been an issue with my 66. I think many others here have had good
experiences with these cards, even though the converters are inside the
case on the PCI card. That said, ianaa (audiophile) and ymmv.

It depends on the computer, and where your card is inside it in relation to other components.

To give an example, my RME HDSP9632, when sitting right next to my video card, would pick up interference.  I put it there because that was the only PCI slot I had.  I then moved it to a PCI-X slot as far away from the video card as I could, and I no longer get any audible interference.

How much interference, depends on placement of the card, placement of other objects in the computer, quality of components and design of the card(How well it protects it signal path), and a few other factors I probably know nothing about;)
