At 24bit/44KHz, we got the following RMAA results:

With 24bit, we started to see some differences in performance, between the Internal/External recording modes, especially in IMD +Noise levels and Stereo crosstalk:

Much greater differences in this mode, just look at the Noise level and Dynamic range.

Lastly, at the best quality recording you can get, at 24bit/192KHz, with RMAA:

Again, there are differences between the Internal and External recording modes. As we suspected, Internal recording method is preferable since the signal is recorded digitally from the card's chipsets.

Below is a table with all the performance results for the various 24bit modes:
