X-Fi range is pretty good.

@cheesewheels99 That soundcard does not look good. From the reviews there are too much cons. about it and how much it is bad.

So I think that I will opt for either the X-Fi Pro or the Baracuda or the Asus Sonar. Do not know yet which one is better. Maybe some of you could just help me from their own personal experiance.

tnx
