- Ear Piercing Shriek = RMA Return
This is the 2nd PCIx1 sound card that I bought for the same Gigabyte motherboard.The first card, an Asus Xonar card, crashed while playing certain games.So, I bought the tried and true Creative.After about 5 minutes of use it emitted an ear-piercing scream - along the lines of a smoke alarm, or building fire alarm.I tried different ports, disconnecting the I/O drive - reinstalling the software - typical things one does to try to avoid the RMA process.Amazon tells me that the replacement ...

- Fantastic Sound Card!
Amazon was great about getting the sound card to me pretty soon after I ordered it.It didn't take very much work to get it up and running at all.I'm running windows XP, so that might have something to do with the ease of installation and use.I'm absolutely loving the sound that I'm getting out of my PC now!
Rating: - X-FI Platinum is horrible
This product is garbage.Bought it because the specs looked awesome, but there is a HUGE catch: there is a well known issue that some of these cards (if not all) will introduce a popping noise into your audio.Creative acknowledges the snap-crackle-pop issue, but does nothing to remedy the problem.No patch, no replacements, nothing.This leads me to believe they have faulty hardware.They blamed certain motherboard manufacturers, but other people with other motherboards have experienced the ...

Rating: - Great 5.1 Surround Mixes
The quality of sound coming thru my computer speakers is critical to me. The sound that comes from the "built in" sound devices on most mother boards today may provide the latest in 7.1 technology, but if you listen to music critcally as I do, there's just too much inherent noise. The answer is an add-on sound card. I prefer the ease of connection from the front bay interface that the Creative card provides. All the connections for audio are there, digital and analog, except the XLR type. If you need ... Read More
Rating: - takes some time, but worth it
at first this might sound like a lot of negative, but there is positive in the end, trust me.
after coming home late one night after a long day of work my roommate informs me that i have a package from amazon.i do my happy dance and open the package, and in it is my new mouse and sound card.
right away i tare into my computer and do some re-arranging of my custom built "Green Machine". i place the 5.25" slot face panel in my lowest of 5 slots, then my all in 1 card reader, then my ... Read More
