Can someone else with a similar set-up see if this is going on with you? Is this normal?
Which would be the better card to get at this price? I'm running Logitech z-680s and Seinheisser HD595s on Vista 64. Besides the creative hate train, is there any other reason to not get the X-Fi? I have one now and quite enjoy their Crystallizer thing.
Alternatively, is there a convincing...

I have a set of Logitech z-680s (with a SB Audigy2 Value), but most of the time I'm using my headphones for gaming and such. Up until now I've just been using some cheapo Plantronics headset, but yesterday I ordered the Sennheiser HD485.
My question is, am I losing significant sound quality...
I've just recently gotten an MX1000 for myself, and there a very weird problem that I have never seen or read about before.
At random intervals, during otherwise normal operation (in both games and in Windows[XP SP2]), one axis of motion stops responding to the mouse moving. It's like I hit a...
Hey, I have a Dell 4550 that I want to transfer to a non-Dell case. I'm wondering whether or not the motherboard is going to fit in an ATX case.
