Soundblaster Audigy SE and Other Cards
on: July 05, 2006, 09:30:36 pm
I was strolling through Wal-Mart's electronics department one day and I spotted a Soundblaster Audigy SE card for $30. The only things I can remember it having on the box was 24-bit sound support (and Surround sound, but i couldn't remember if it was 5.1), needing 128 MB of RAM, and having the alienware logo.

So, to the question: Do I buy the Audigy SE or get something different?

What do you have now?
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Then you might as well. Just look into what driver issues there are (every Creative card has some) and what the work-arounds are.
