Title: Aureal A3D
Post by: Zarax on July 07, 2004, 05:23:32 am

I've got it integrated in my motherboard's audio card, and surprisingly FS sounds much better than with EAX...
A search for more details failed to bring sufficent info...
Any guess?

It was a competiting 3D audio standard similar to EAX, the company behind it went bankcrupt many years ago and if I remember correctly, was bought by Creative. Probably happened 4-6 years ago or something...

Or did you mean you want more information about your audio card? Can't really help with the information you provided of it. :p

Yeah, my on board audio supports both EAX and Aureal, also...   nVidia Soundstorm... good chipset.
