I got
this sound card from one of my friends.
His wife just had a baby, and I visited them in the hospital. He works for ASUS, so he gave me this card as a token of gratitude.
I installed it, and it sounds pretty sweet. But I think I need to get better speakers to really hear the quality sound this card generates.
In the past when I had my desk, I'd wake up in the morning to see that my cats knocked over the speakers, this happened multiple times, the first time, the cats knocked one over through the night, in the morning I seen the speaker hanging over the edge of my desk by its wire!
Anyway moral of the story, THEY STILL SOUND KICKASS! and they look like I got them yesturday, no dents or anything..
I realize that bose is usually expensive but man, I think it was the best $150 I spent in all my life.

Thats bogus, their still $150. but well worth it!
I was going to get either this pare, or a bose coputer speaker set that came with a sub for $50 more.. tried both out at the store.. The one I got sounded alot better..
anyway, I'm ranting.
Thanks for the recommendation.
I am buying them.
I was a skeptic about expensive speakers until I got a subwoofer. The difference is huge.
And I can definitely hear the difference between a $10 headphone and a $100 one. I don't even consider myself an audiophile.
My speakers should arrive tomorrow, and I'll let you guys know how they sound compared to my $15 Logitech speakers.
