Pros: I needed a soundcard to replace the dead onboard sound for an old computer that I'm selling, and this works perfectly. It's dirt cheap, and it works.
Cons: Crashed my computer a few times before I can get the default xp driver installed. Now it's working flawlessly.
Overall Review: It's a $x card, so you can't expect much. The sound quality is probably horrible compared to the x-fi I have in my computer, but it also costs 10 times less.
