Asus Xonar DX 7.1 Sound Card

[Lloyd_mcse]

Hi guys,
just wanted to take a moment to say a few words about the
Asus Xonar DX that i just put in my bedroom PC (mainly media).

It's £60 inc vat for the PCI-E version, This version does require floppy type power, a bit of braid and heat shrink sorted the messy cables out

So far I have been very impressed with the sound quality in movie mode, supremely clear well rounded sound. Much better than the X-Fi i had up here.
I will see how it's game profile handles Battlefield 2142 later, once i get it installed.

I can defo recommend it for media PCs, we'll see about gaming later
