I got fed up with Creative. Their software is bloated to the eyeballs and their support is shocking. I just stuck with what came with the mobo. I'd consider an alternative sound card supplier if anyone has any ideas?

Is there an alternative?  I guess more and more people are sticking with the 5.1, 6.1, 7.1, 8.1 promises of onboard sound, despite the CPU load . . .

Lovely - just the tiniest of spanners tho - is it really worth getting the 640MB GTS?  This card was an early release and was quickly replaced by the 320MB and by the time you can afford a second one the 640MB might be discontinued.  Unless you are planning to push above 1600 x 1200 then the 320MB will more than meet your needs and save you a few quid
