How to Ask Questions.

How can I make myself clear?

Using decent spelling, grammar and punctuation are all conducive to getting quality responses. When discussing a particular piece of gear, you may provide a link, but please also provide at least the name of the item. Not everybody wants to go clicking on a link to see what you're talking about

They are both CREATIVE Sound Blaster Audigy2 7.1's. One has more voices though. Happy now princess?


Dude, I could care less if you post in raw binary or some such. However, since you are asking for free advice, it behooves you to make your question as easy as possible for others to answer. I was trying to offer friendly advice. As I said, "not everybody want's to go clicking on a link to see what you are talking about."

No they are not.....one is an Audigy 2 value and the other is a Audigy 2 ZS.

CREATIVE Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS 70SB035000000 8 (7.1) Channels 24-bit 192KHz PCI Interface Sound Card - Retail

CREATIVE Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Value SB0400 8 (7.1) Channels 24-bit 192KHz PCI Interface Sound Card - OEM




Screw the Audigy 2 value card and it's driver problems, emulated hardware and assorted other issues, get the OEM version of the ZS card

and avoid the whole mail in rebate thing. ;)
 
Where do you get drivers for an OEM card given that the only way to get Creative's drivers is on the CD included with the retail package? Also, isn't the actuall hardware on some OEM cards different as well?
 
By chance is there anything better than the CREATIVE Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS out for less money by chance? I haven't followed anything in the sound dept since nforce 2 5.1
