What pci sound card would you guys recommend that is SMP friendly? Besides SB

Post by plucky duck »

I hear SoundBlaster sound cards can cause a lot of grief when mated with an SMP system? Yay or nay?

Anything from Hercules or Turtle Beach you guys can recommend? I'll be using it for occasional gaming and listening to audio CDs. I'm planning on getting the Klipsch Promedia 2.1, if that makes a difference.

Please advise, thx.

I love my Hercules GTXP. Sounds so much better than the SB Live. Not sure how it will act on an SMP system though. Why do you want SMP anyways? And if your going to get the klispch 2.1's you might as well get the Logitech Z560's... 4.1 system and 400 watts of lovin' :)
