This sound card worked perfectly on my Windows 10 computer. I am using the fiber Optics feature from my the Asus Sonarn SE 5.1 card to my Sony stereo system. Everything is working great and the sound is excellent. I am very pleased with this sound card.
Software installs in a minute, and BOOM! Done.
Worked out of the box with my Ubuntu 9.10 system. Sound is very clear with no background static. Microphone input is very clean. Just plugged it into an open USB port and settings for it showed up in the mixer. I use it primarily for a headset interface, so I can't make any claims towards the "7.1" channels. Very good performace for the price.
Pro's: Easy mounting to table or desk. Connection wires hidden inside Boom Arm
Excellent gaming sound card. If your motherboard doesn't have a high quality audio chip, this is a great option to improve audio for gaming and movie watching. Great software to control the card and more bells and whistles then you will probably ever need or use.
