well heres another one i donno wtf the cards on this page are for......
<Johaan> I have 2 more questions though
<Johaan> first
<Johaan> The sound card issue
<Johaan> Is the Audigy 2 Platinum eX card the best out therE?
<Johaan> It costs about 200 bucks
<Johaan> and I'm willing to pay them as long as It's the best thing I can get (within a reasonable price)
<Johaan> But then I see Cards like these:
<Johaan> http://www.jdsound.com/store/category.asp?SID=2&Category_ID=51&Page=1
<Johaan> And I can't help but wonder if what I'm paying for is mostly marketing and not performance.
<Johaan> Just so you know
<Johaan> I plan to use this thing as a complete working center
<Johaan> Bah who the hell am I kidding
<Johaan> I'm gonna play games like crazy on it
<Johaan> but
<Johaan> I'm also gonna connect the TV and antenna to it. This is going to be my new Home Theathre as well.
<Johaan> So I need to have the best card out there.
<Johaan> (Again, within a reasonable pricE).
<Johaan> The only thing that keeps the Audigy high on the list is
<Johaan> all the gaming compatibility issue's the other cards might present.
<Johaan> Let's face it
<Johaan> everything that comes out, has EAX support or is design to run well with soundblaster.
<Johaan> But I dunno, maybe these cards (the ones on the page) kick Audigy's Butt no matter what they're running.
