davidst Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 (edited) Get the headphones that plug into the jack on the soundcard. They tried USB speakers years ago and back then they ate up so much cpu that the games would stutter. But yea USB speaker/headphones have their own DSP and/or use the cpu for processing.
