Sorry if this an old thread but I've been crawling the net for hours now and seriously can't make my mind up.īasically I'm looking at upgrading from Biostar on-board sound to Creative X-FI 5.1, I've found one pretty cheap and it has to be cheap as I'm currently out of work, and I need USB due to no slots being available for PCI.

So, can anybody chime in on why the Pro is cheaper than the HD? Does the HD offer anything on the line of sound quality that the Pro does not? Thanks in advance for any advice offered. But Other devices and laptops seem to not do the same thing.īut with the existing head and space issues regarding the Radeon Crossfire configuration I'm pretty much set on retiring the X-Fi Platinum PCI card to be replaced by one of the two USB based solutions. This may not be the sound card, but more of a computer problem in general.

Swan D1080MKII's Bookshelf Speakers (Powered)Īlso have a Pyle Pro P1001AT Hybrid Pre-Amplifier / Polk Audio Monitor Series 30'sĪs it stands right now, the Pyle amp hates the X-Fi Plat PCI, tons of line noise when plugged into. Steelseries 7H Headphones (Gaming headset) I don't do any recording, so that's not a factor. However it looks like the Pro supports 5.1, where as the HD only supports 2.1? The HD is more expensive than the Pro, which is kinda throwing me off a bit.
However I'm not quite sure which I should get. I've found these two USB dac from creative and reviews seem to praise them for the most part. Just built a new machine with two Radeon 6950's and space is pretty tight. Lookin to replace my X-Fi Platinum PCI card.
