Hi guys,
I have purchased LOGITECH Z5500 couple of days ago.
My onboard REALTEK HDA is not upto the mark.
My ASUS PMKPL-VM have S/PDIF concetable pins onboard but the socket is mising and S/PDIF AUDIO MODULE cards are rear and fullishly overpriced so this option sucks (real bad stuff from ASUS as they simply could give the socket onboard even not adding a peny).
Changing motherboard now adds 4K or so includind selling two months old ASUS PMKPL-VM and will still not compete in gaming by cobinning with my speaker set to a good stand alone soundcard and I'm considering nehalem platform in three months or so as well.
So in my opnion I should have to go with a good stand alone soundcard. I personly prefer CREATIVE XI-FI XTREME GAMER. What about ASUS XONAR series and M-AUDIO one's.
So suggest me best total solution under 8K max.
Please reaply soon guys as I have make my purchase this monday.
