I got this to replace my onboard sound, and i love it!! The external panel is a major plus. When i have my 5.1 surround sound hooked up, you can tell when sounds are coming behind you. Well worth the money!

Rating: - Great Card but many bugs!
I bought this card in November because I recently purchased the Klipsch Promedia 5.1 speaker system. At first I was kind of intimidated with all the cables and connections for this card, but after reading the instruction's manual it was pretty straight foward. I was also confused about the PCI connection for this card since it has three slots instead of two, like a typical PCI card, but it fits fine. When the card was perfectly setup inside my PC I proceeded to install the software and drivers provided on ... Read More
