At one point I was going to try and get a whole receiver and speaker setup and such but then I realised I could only afford about 1 single speaker I relented and just got a 5.1 Logitech setup. The Z-5500 was very highly regarded but sadly no longer available so I settled for its follow-up, the Z906. I connected my PC and my TV and consoles to it. The PC itself also has an ASUS DX sound card.
It's good enough for me, the only downside is that for some games it can be hard to hear some of the more delicate sounds like footsteps. This can be a detriment in online games were such sounds are important (E.g Counter-Strike) so recently I've started thinking about possibly buying some quality headphones. I don't really like them but at the same time it would definitely help in some games.
RTCW is a great game. Definitely give it a try. It's multiplayer was eventually spun off into a standalone thing but I assume you're talking about the single player.
