Gaming Soundcard

phaded · 7 Oct 2008 at 15:58

I'm looking for a soundcard that I want to primarily use for gaming, with a digital coax output if possible. Oh and it needs to be PCI too please as my Motherboard only has 1 PCI-E slot and that's for my GPU.

Razer Barracuda AC-1 sound card?
It's a good card but the configuration interface takes some getting used to.

I got a X-Fi Fatality Titanium Pro a week ago,sound quality is great in games and music,but I only played Crysis warhead so far.I didn't had any problems at all with Creative's drivers and configuration is really simple.

I was thinking about the X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Series card, read some reviews and it sounds perfect for what I need. I'm going to use 64bit Vista though and I hear it has some problems when it comes to this OS?, with the drivers and such.

Xonar X1 (or is it called D1?)

Just got a Xonar d1 after an x-fi. Love it!

Well I was thinking of the Xonar D2X, but like I said i want the soundcard mainly for gaming and Asus cards only have EAX2.0 were as Creative have EAX5.0.

Why 'forget Razer'? It's not a bad card.
