I am being driven nuts looking for these.
My main purpose is gaming.
For souncards, ive narrowed it down to the X-Fi Xtreme Gamer (no need for the 64MB XRAM in the Fatal1ty), the ASUS Xonar D2 (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SC-000-AS&groupid=701&catid=11&subcat=) , the Razer Barracuda (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SC-000-RA&groupid=701&catid=11&subcat=), the X-Meridian (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SC-004-HT&groupid=701&catid=11&subcat=), and the X-Fi prelude (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SC-000-AZ&groupid=701&catid=11&subcat=).
We all know the Xtreme Gamer is a proven card, and its generally excellent - even more so because of its price.
However, is that what I should really get over the other cards ? Will the other cards not provide superior sound ?
I would very much appreciate it if someone could recommend me a card out of those (unless there is a better one). So far, out of another thread, its one vote for the Xtreme Music, however, because its a discontinued product, the only option is ebay, and I dont enjoy auctions
And secondly, which is the best gaming headset ?
From what ive seen, the Raptor-Gaming H1 (http://www.raptor-gaming.com/raptor/raptorUK/index.htm), the Razer Barracuda HP-1 (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SP-001-RA&groupid=702&catid=22&subcat=692), and the Creative Fatal1ty gaming headset (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SP-091-CL&groupid=702&catid=22&subcat=502) seem like worthy candidates for a replacements for speakers altogether.
Can anyone tell me which is best, if any out of those ? And if all are less-than-brilliant, which would you recommend ?
Once again, I thank in advance for any assistance.
