asus Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 remember how i said i ordered an audigy 2 value.. well.. newegg sent me an audigy 2.. .. not a value.. i called them.. and they said its there mistake.. and "dont wory about it" but the main reason for this thread is this.. i have said many times, how my cheep 3 dollar sound card worked fine, and i could not tell the difference ... well.. YOU CAN TELL A DIFFRENCE.. and i was shocked at some of the sound i was hearing in my mp3's.. so much more clear.. and games seam to come alive.. and i dont even have good speakers lol.. so if your thinking about a new sound card.. i would recommend 100% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

swifty11212 Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 yeah, people who swear their onboard sound or 9800 pro is just as good as the better stuff are just in denial 427233[/snapback] (im getting carried away with this ) yeah my audigy is better than my onboard besides i can configure my regular audigy to work with 5 outputs making it a ghetto 7.1+ surround and hey even though the 9800pro isnt that great, its still something better than the fx series, meh but i dont care if i get a 6x00 series or a 9800pro because its something better than nothing.

InvaderTrax Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 Yeah. I've got an Audigy 2 ZS, but I don't notice the difference between it and my SB PCI512 because I've got cheap speakers. As for the GPU thing, I really don't see a difference between my 9700 Pro and 6800 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbone2sk Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 I see the difference between my highy overclocked 9800pro and overclocked x850xt. Full everything is so much nicer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sveach Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 Ive always said i dont notice a difference, but i DO need a sound card, ive got my computer running through a ONKYO a/v control tuner amplifier, and i can hear a really annoying hum coming through the line from the microphone port, so its time for a sound card. Im definitely getting an audigy....just dont know which one yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
