Well that is how the market goes Intel were suppose to drop the 2.4c at the end of OCT. (I dont know if they did or didnt)... But the market is always changing, maybe if you didnt get that model now and held off until 2004.. You might of bought a different model...

So what sound card did you get a nice new A2?

True, by x-mas time the 9800 Pro may be down to what I paid for this one, but I just could justify that chance, so I did it.

No, I'm actually not that impressed with the Creative cards any more. Their drivers are buggy, and I always had hissing problems with them. I got a Hercules Fortissimo III. Sounds great and the hissing I had with the CL card is gone too.

Well that is cool

I have to admit I am nothing but a Creative Labs nut.. I never owned a different sound card (other then onboard) other then a SB...

I never had a hissing problem nor a buggy driver problem with it.

I have heard a lot of good things about the Fortissimo III so its all good

You know with an upgraded sound card and video card.. A new monitor and speakers are nice too

My monitor isn't that old (few months) and while I would like some nice speakers, I don't ever use the ones I have now (cheapos) because I always end up having to use the headset.

I'm a Creative Lab nut myself, I did dabble with the Philips Seismic Edge card for awhile but decided that it wasn't up to my expectations - couldn't enable EAX in alot of games (the box did look good though ) See sig, I've upgrade my sound card to the new Audigy2 ZS and Logitech Z-640 - also got a Logitech multi-media KB and MX310 mouse. The A2 ZS is excellent! The Z-640 was the best investment I've made so far - it's cheap and sound so damn good! CL all the way for me as of now.
