Entry-level interface with pre-amp(s)

It seems to me that, when choosing an entry-level interface/sound card - say, in the $150 to $300 range - one of the most important considerations is whether or not the card has usable preamps. If it doesn't, it might cost the same amount again to buy a preamp of the same caliber as the card. Most of them don't have preamps, and from what I've read, the odd one has preamps which are of inferior quality.

What do you think: do you consider preamps when looking at interfaces?

Thanks
