My X-Fi Xtrememusic died on me, so I'm getting a new card. I mainly use it for music, but also games sometimes. I hook the computer up with an analog cable to an amplifier that drives two big speakers. So I don't really need a card that can do surround.
The following cards are in my budget:
Creative X-Fi Xtrememusic
Asus Xonar D1
ESI Audio MAYA44
Audiotrak Prodigy HD 2
All of these are PCI, I don't have any PCI-e slots free left in my PC, so these are the only real options for me (unless you guys know a better card that's PCI and under 100 bucks).
I'm nudging towards the Audiotrak Prodigy HD 2, because I have heard great stuff about its stereo performance. Which one would you guys recommend?
