What does this mean?Highlights
Quality
Bought to replace the onboard via chipset that wouldn't play nice with windows 10 and am very pleased with the results.
Overall i was quite happy with this product.
The audio quality is much much better than onboard, but the surround function is just not ideal.
1 surround and poor quality sound which is mainly down to shonky drivers.
Price
Even though the price is cheap, it provides hi-quality with 24bit/96khz.
Competitiveness
I own a z906 surround system, so that function would be kind of useless for me anyway.
Modern high-end motherboards tend not to require the used of a sound card - especially for just gaming.

Overall its a good sound card but the one annoying thing is that it uses a red led on the card that is very bright and hence visible through a glass side panel its fine if your doing a red themed build but annoying if your going for anything else there is no way to change the colour or turn off the led without cutting wires and voiding warranty

Received today installing the hardware was a snip especially if you have installed cards in pcs before until it came to installing the software from the supplied cd rom
