I picked up a Recon 3D for cheap on Amazon. I really like the card over the Xonar DG and X-Fi ExtremeGamer I also have, and the drivers work great. Only problem is that the is picking up feedback or interference from my GPU. Sounds like a static that seems to vary with GPU load or framerate. I've tried both PCI Express slots and with the front panel cable attached and not attached. The static comes through the headphone jack directly on the card as well.
I could return this and get a Recon 3D Fatality Pro or a Sound Blaster Z. Are these likely to fix the static problem because they have the EMI shields? Or are those just fluff to make the cards look better?
I have no problems with the noise on any other sound card, however those are all PCI cards.
