OCit Posted April 22, 2003 Posted April 22, 2003 I was wonderin, I got the altec lansing 5100 speakers and am gettin the new Asus P4C800 mobo. Should i stick with the built in sound or get an audigy 2 platinum or platinum ex (is the ex worth it?)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overclocker16 Posted April 22, 2003 Posted April 22, 2003 I haven't seen anything on the sound. But if you can really hear the difference, then go for the Audigy 2. (I dunno whats up with gameve with me tonight) but gameve.com has the Audigy 2 OEM for 70 bucks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

islhipr Posted April 22, 2003 Posted April 22, 2003 Yeah get the Audigy2, If you do not want to use ANY of your Standby or power features with XP It is a hardware nightmare, and You have to set your Windows XP as a Standard pc, to avoid issues with the card. Which means you do not even have automatic shutoff when you shutdown, have to put the power button manually. Not worth the issues.

DimensioN Posted April 22, 2003 Posted April 22, 2003 i would go for the audigy2 . it gives better sound , and lets the boxed make a louder sound , and the soundcard takes away alot of work from the cpu , when playing music Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
