Hey people.
I need a recommendation. I want to buy a new audio card. I currently have a Nforce4 motherboard with onboard audio. It's pretty good, but in game I sometime get small stutters, I never got my microphones (tried more than one) to work, and it's not asio.
I'm a gamer first, a musician second (at least when it comes to buying a new audio card). I've been looking at buying a Audigy 2 Zs Plat pro. And even won one on ebay, but seller didn't want to sell it to me (maybe I got too good a deal on it...anyway).
Is this a good choice? Are there other options I should consider? I want it to have very low latency for ASIO and be an excellent gamer card. I'm not a professional musician, so I don't think I need all the bell and whistle of the more expensive audigy 4 pro and x-fi pro (all I really want is the low ASIO latency on the musician side of the card).
Thanks!
