Title: Sound Card decision
Post by: Video_Master on December 26, 2007, 11:13:59 AM

ok, I have narrowed it down to 2 cards.  There is the regular version and then the Fatal1ty version.  Why is the one better then the other besides the name, gold bracket, and the 64MB of X-Ram.  Why do I even need RAM on my sound card?

The x ram helps in games that are coded to use it. I noticed it in BF2. I would be wary of those cards if using vista. I tried mine in my vista box and it was problems.

I disagree with all the Fatal1ty stuff, since it's all the same thing. You just pay a lot more for no reason really.

I would usually agree with the Fatality shit they put out but for gaming the Fatality card is actually worth it you will see some extra frames because of the card. It is the only case to spend more for the fatality card.
