Monitor setup?

OK, so I'm getting ready to get some "real" monitors to replace my PC speakers in my recording setup.

- Desktop PC
- Sonar 3 PE
- Delta 1010 soundcard
- Yamaha MG16 mixer (probably a new mixer soon)

Anyway, the main thing I'm wondering about is how to integrate the monitors with my computer setup. Should I get active or passive monitors? Should I take output from the PC to the monitors, or from the delta 1010? Any help would be greatly appreciated, and although there is plenty of monitor info on the board... monitor reccomendations are welcome too. Thanks.
 
Take the output from which ever soundcard has the best da converters.


active or passive?

depends on how much money you have, cause you will need an amp with passives.
 
I would think the Delta has better converters and analog output stage, since it's designed for pro-audio.
