Replylinear or 512-point sinc?

Whenever I'm about to export my track to a wav file, FL asks me whether I want "Linear" sampler interpolation or a choice of different "point sinc" interpolations. I always go for linear since it does the job quick and I don't usually have too much computing power since I'm on a laptop mostly, but lately I've been wondering if it makes much difference to the sound in the wav file. I mean, does it make it sound cleaner or deeper if I got for the point sinc interpolation? Or does it not matter for my purposes, since I'm not much of an audiophile? Any help here's much appreciated, and thanks in advance for any feedback. Peace everyone!

	i find it makes a huge difference but it depends on wether its the final mix or not...if its not the final render i will do a quick render but for final bang it up all the way...it only takes an extra few mins so dont worry about render times 2 much but jus imagine u want the best quality possible..

	It tells you in FL...512 is THE BEST QUALITY but takes the longest to render! 512 everytime for me!!!
