Great product. On board audio quit. Purchased this card and audio works fine now.

Fantastic sound qualityLoads of sound options and adjustmentsEasy to use UI in Sound Blaster Command

got it to replace a USB dac that kept having connectivity issues. being on the board this is more reliable and does the job as being an rca line out to an headphone amp

Works well ( and I am using Linux Mint and Cachy

* Easily installed and accessed * Drivers are up-to-date * Amazing sound quality (Note: I use ATH-m50x headphones) * Sleek, minimalist design on the card in-tower * Usable with a more wide array of input and output cords * Directional sound is absolutely ridiculous. My COD abilities went through the roof after this purchase. * Deep bass you can feel, punchy drums, beautiful trebles * PCIe format keeps the table-top clutter to a minimum, as opposed to other amp and dac combos * The audio control module adds a layer of instantaneous, "analog" control that I absolutely love.

Comes with low profile bracket. Sound is great compared to onboard sound component.

All is good

Excellent sound quality Plug and play install

Easy to set up Program is user friendly Great sound

Sound Blaster does a very good job for the price


Plug and play, super easy, amazing sound and it installs itself!

I bought it to install on an old computer because the built-in sound card no longer worked. The sound quality is okay but not as good as the PCI-e version I also bought. It also comes with a driver disk.

Got this because it's compatible with Windows 98 Upon boot, Win 98 detected it, it installed a PCE-E to PCI bridge chip driver. I had to install the driver manually after, but that's just Windows 98 being bad.



I have a laptop docking station that does not have audio inputs so didn't like having to plug and unplug external speakers from the front of the laptop each time I docked/undocked. Laptop is running Vista. Plugged it into one of the docking station USB ports and it worked immediately after Vista recognized there was a new device in the port.

The sound card has very rarely failed to do what it claims to do and I highly recommend it to you. Yes it does have a mic/headset plugin and I have no final complaints

Great powerful sound. Good adjustments in software. Can seriously drive a good set of headphones.
