Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The sound is crisp and clean. It seems the sound is clearer and fuller. The sound blaster is circa 2013, but it really doesn't matter.

Cons

The driver installation proceeds to varrying percentages of completion and then faults out. The only option is to restart the computer. They reset on every reboot (windows 10).

I got this when it was on sale.

Competitiveness

But now, many audigy models (like the audigy fx) are just cheap hd audio chipsets no better than what's already in your computer.

I had previously purchased a different sound card that said it would work with windows 7 but i eventually found out that it wor... Read More
