Pros:
Excellent Sound!
Cons:
3 IRQ's needed, sometimes a headache....
Overall, this is an EXCELLENT sound card! Sometimes a pain in the tush to install and or configure, but will do a lot better than 97% of the sound cards out there to say the least. A bit pricey compared to cheaper cards, and will be in serous competition with the newest 6 channel onboard sound like Asus is making standrd as of late 2003. :-)
------------------------------ Now that the prices of virtually everything are going up and up and now that thousands of people are losing their jobs everyday as the US goverment still hands out 10,000+ checks to those people just getting off the boat, I think I will take a boat ride and get in line, I sure could use the money to pay for the gas in my Viper and GTO!
