Plus, If you want EAX sound, (which nearly all games tout these days) go with the Audigy 1 Lar.

I have absolutely no problems with sound in any games ziroc, and i'm using a fortissimo 2, which has the same chipset as tbsc... what games specifically? But for EAX creative is the only way to go unfortunately....[/QUOTE]With my old PC, nearly ALL games won't work fully, or have skips with the Montego II from TB. Latest drivers, and all too. BTW, you may not know that you are missing LOTS of additional sounds from most of your games with other sound cards, because most game dev's have many tracks and it's tied into the EAX sound driver to uncode them. say you are in Morrowind, and you walk to a lake, you may hear the water, but do you hear the birds? the wind and the background of the town just to the south? That is why EAX is pretty much the only option if you want the most out of your games. I loved Turtle beach, but once their version of 'eax' didn't pan out, it's gone down hill. And they are not to hot with updating drivers.
BTW, I was just looking at my old Sound card boxes--I just found my OLLLLLDDDD Original Sound Blaster (version 1.0) THE first soundblaster card in 1991 or 1992. lol!!!! Now we have old plate inputs, optical inputs and stuff.. amazing stuff. [img]smile.gif[/img]
