    Soundblaster X AE-5 Woes......

    Yeah I saw that. I’m comparing all of them now. That uses Dolby Headphone? Correct? So....maybe a good solution is to grabs a Schiit Stack, and run Razer’s virtual surround on that? I’m starting to see that maybe an itegrated/internal sound card might be inferior to an external amp and DAC, and...

    Well...seems the creative issues regarding driver support and hardware recognition have gotten me. I've installed a AE-5 in my rig and it only gets recognized about 50% of the time. Seems there were a lot of issues with this in the Z card line, and from what I've read they've made it over to...

    Small/Portable/Half Height Enclosed Server Cabinet?

    Small/Portable/Half Height Enclosed Server Cabinet?

    I'm looking for some sort of small/portable/half height enclosed server cabinet I can put in my home office. I'm going to have something like 80 drops scattered throughout our new house we're building, regarding network and security, so I was thinking of going with something like this...
