Not necessarily. I use Windows Vista and the built-in BT stack was ass compared to the stack and software that Dell provides (Dell BT 350 internal card, but the stack, and maybe the chips, are Toshiba) is vastly superior. I couldn't even listen to stereo bluetooth (Jabra BT620's) until I installed the Dell provided software. I always recommend using the vendor BT software unless by some fluke theirs is worse than Microsofts, or the documentation specifically says otherwise.
