This review is from: Creative Sound Blaster Zx 116dB PCIe Gaming Sound Card with 600 ohm Headphone Amp and Desktop Audio Control Module
Pros:
Hardware and software installed with no issues (except below)
Cons:
Con 1: The 'seating' of the card wasn't 'flush' with the motherboard / back of the case. When it was flush with the motherboard (pushed all the way in), it had a small space from the back of the computer case (coolermaster HAF 932). When it was fastened correctly into the back of the case, the seating lifted slightly from the PCI slot. After screwing it it, it was pushed back down into the card which created a small open space in the back of the card.
Con 2: My current speaker/subwoofer system apparently wasn't compatible because I'm not able to use any of the Zx functionalities. Have to get new speakers I guess...
Con 3: The small red device didn't work with my headphone set up because my headphone was USB and this device had no USB adapters to plug into it.
Overall Review:
I'm sure it'll all sound great...when I buy supporting hardware to go with it...
