Simply Put, wow
operating system:Windows 7i have a cheap old Asus P5KPL-CM motherboard. initially i thought the integrated sound card was good enough for my gaming and media needs, after all how much better could music sound with a better sound card right?
after showing interest in a 5.1 speaker system i was advised to buy a soundcard for my MoBo, despite the motherboard being capable of 5.1.
i have yet to install the speakers so im just using this sound card at the moment. and all i can say is: wow
the sound clarity and volume output in just my headphones alone is amazing. i never realized how much my old integrated sound card was holding me back. using my microphone is no longer such a chore as i do not need to speak in elevated tones just to be heard.
i have the card with the latest drivers installed and a host of generously provided software installed on my computer
simply put this card, or its PCI-E counterpart, are a must buy for any media enthusiast
Excellent soundcard

Brilliant
operating system:Windows VistaBought this card to replace my on board sound and i am so glad i did.They say you pay for Quality and in this case you do the sound card looks like and feels like quality you get all the leads you need lots of software as well. Once again Ebuyer comes up trumps when i loaded this card driver on it loaded the Xp one and that still worked in Vista OMG updated to latest version now on Vista, anyway a must buy if you want to and if you had enough of Creative sound cards over the years this could be your dream.
Goodbye Creative Labs!!!
operating system:Windows XPWhat can i say ....
1. It's not made by Creative.
2. The drivers are not written by Creative.
3. It works
4. The drivers install without complaint.
5. The sound quality is out of this world. Everything is so much clearer, bass is tighter and more controlled.
In short i'm very very happy with it. If you don't game then this IS the card to have.
