Hello sim fans, I have been around a long time here, just reading and not posting for awhile<G> anyway, this is always a good newsgroup to get excellent help. Q: What is a good sound card that will work with the 3D sounds( NASCAR 3 ) ? I have used my SB 16 for the last 3 years, this weekend I will up grade to a new 3D sound card, its time to hang it up. I was thinking about the SB live value ( I can pick it up for like $50 at the Computer show in LA ). Anyone have any suggestions? Mike Dunn
Rule No. 1 Don't buy anything at a computer show!!! Rule No. 2 Don't ever buy anything at a computer show...it is kinda like a carnival...and when the board doesn't work on Monday..who ya gonna call? Don't be stupid..use you head for something besides a hat rack!!!

I don't think there is a better value than the SoundBlaster Live! X-Gamer. $90, all the functionality of the Platinum (minus the Input/Output Geek-Panel that comes standard with the Platinum, and is optional for the X-Gamer) and the 3 (good) games that come with it cost more than what you pay for the card! -Larry >Hello sim fans, >I have been around a long time here, just reading and not posting for >awhile<G> anyway, this is always a good newsgroup to get excellent help. >Q: What is a good sound card that will work with the 3D sounds( NASCAR 3 ) ? >I have used my SB 16 for the last 3 years, this weekend I will up grade to a >new 3D sound card, its time to hang it up. >I was thinking about the SB live value ( I can pick it up for like $50 at >the Computer show in LA ).
