I have that card. I have the Platinum card. Thats the way to gooo. It has everything you could ever need. and more. The front bay drive is one of the best things I have got for my comp. It has optical in/out. midi in/out. You can watch dolby digital, encode ac3, have 5.1 6.1 and 7.1. It has Coax in and out. Aux in. Line in/line in 2. Firewire port. and has one in the back. listen to 24bit music. You can hear things you never heard before. for 200 its nice.The ZS is good to, but for an extra 100$ its worth it.

the poster asked for a card under $100...the audigy doesn't make the cut.

personally, i'd get the turtle beach card anyway.

>You can hear things you never heard before

putting a $100 more into the speakers will net you better results.

Yep, Audigy2 ZS is the way to go. I might wait until Creative releases their next card and upgrade my Audigy to that, it's inevitable.
