    What soundcard and speakers to buy? Help!

    Hi phide, Thank you oh so very much for your time writing your reply. Very clear and valid points. Just ordered the Z-5500 a few hours ago... Yes from everything I've read so far and exactly as you're saying. These speakers aren't the best, but for computer speakers definitely up there...

    What soundcard and speakers to buy? Help!

    Hi - thanks for the input. Was definitely helpful. Yeah I just realized the XtremeGamer is a cut down piece of rubish. Tried looking at the differences before but gave up after half an hour. It's the XtremeMusic I'd consider... Really couldn't care about X-Ram (unless it's free or very cheap)...

    What soundcard and speakers to buy? Help!

    http://www.auzentech.com/site/products/x-fi_prelude.php That's it there... you'll find penty of information searching around... Basically from my limited understanding. It offers some better off the shelf parts (quality), and is basically just a better build of the x-fi cards. And a major...

    What soundcard and speakers to buy? Help!

    Hi, Totally confused as what to do... Thinking about getting a creative X-Fi and some new speakers. Currently using the onboard sound from my Asus P5K, which seems fairly good for onboard? I haven't owned a creative soundcard since the original "Live". So a little behind with what the...

    Help with 750W PSU - Silverstone / Thermaltake

    Ok think I need to order something within the next few hours... grrr otherwise I won't get it by the weekend. (hopefully start assembling then) I'm just totally confused. Think I'm leaning towards the DA750, followed closely by ST75F. Both get good reviews. ST75F gets a 9 from JonnyGuru. But...

    Help with 750W PSU - Silverstone / Thermaltake

    So you'd recommend something from the Zeus line? Is there a big difference? Not modular from memory, think I have a slight preference towards modular but not big seeing as it does have the resistance drawback... worth the extra dollars?

    Help with 750W PSU - Silverstone / Thermaltake

    So...wuts the latest word on 30incher release dates???

    I thought dell's telephone hours would be 24/7 (sounded like an indian when I last phoned). But they were closed (Australia) when I phoned. Wanted to ask if I could extend the warranty later. Anyway I ended up agonizing over whether I should buy the 4 or 5 year warranty. Was very tempted. But...

    So...wuts the latest word on 30incher release dates???

    Ok I'm going to pull the trigger on the Dell 3007WFP-HC in approx 4 hours (just before the special ends). No new news making this a bad idea? I'll do it then, because I can probably cancel the order if the price drops even more after 12:00, and order at the lower price. I doubt it will... but...
