It's OK, but if you want some thing that Games will actually USE, buy a Soundblaster Audigy. I have the Audigy Plat. (With the front plate input board) and MAN, it's clear. 24-bit multi-channel performance and 100dB SNR for high definition audio.
I had a Turtle Beach Montego 2 (sp?) and it had A3D v2.0, and was ok, but 99% of games didn't make USE of that. They went with EAX. And now, EAX2 is out (Audigy Gamer) and is the 'new' standard.
Go with something people support. Turtle Beach does make a nice card, but they don't offer good updated driver support. They are mainly good for MIDI and sound editing...
If you are buying it for gaming, go with the SB Audigy. You WON'T go wrong.
PS: Soundblaster Live was a good card, why do you think it's 'nasty' ??

Thx Z maby i can combine them use two soundcards..! Ahhh my Sb live is the first one that come of those (pci) card and it have some strange sounds and glitches, i have downloading the latest driver but it has still those strange things for it so , i thot i would change to a new brand to se of that help i allvais had soundlaster cards in my pc`s and the Audigy Plat is SO expensive here so i dont knove it cost about $ 350 but a shall look at it once more!
I like the front plate input board so it IS cool i must admitt that! hehe!
I also trie to change it in diffrent pci slots but those strange sounds is there anyway and i have it conected to my new Harman Kardon AVR 8500 sourround reciver and the sounds was the same on my old HK AVI 250 so that must be something wrong with the sound card!
And my computer have a new mainboard (Asus) so i dont think the sound thingie have something to do with the pc. AND i have checked the cables and plugs!
