Hi all,
I have just purchased a new TV and am upgrading my HTPC to be fast enough for the latest games and for HD playback.
I am not sure about soundcards however, I have an Audigy 2 at the moment and I am using the kx drivers which make it usable. I know it does some bad 44.1khz to 48khz resampling though. I think I have been turned away from creative with they lack of care for drivers after a few months.
Can anyone suggest a very good quality soundcard to match the new PC I am building, preferably one that has a simple option to mirror stereo sources to the back channels. I don't like any of this fancy Prologic II and CMSS stuff I see with some soundcards.
I will be using reclock to keep my frames in sync with the screen and may use the soundcard for resampling if its any good, instead of doing it in software.
