High-end PC – Inside Parts (PSU, Storage and Sound Card)
- Power Supply Unit Selection
These days, onboard sound on motherboards has improved vastly, since Intel decided that HD Audio was a good idea. Since we are building a gaming PC, we want an add-on sound card which will offer all the 3D audio features such as AC3, DTS-ES, Dolby Digital EX, ASIO 2 and EAX along with great sound quality.
The X-Fi Platinum is not the most expensive sound card from Creative but it manages to impress with its high quality audio reproduction, drive bay panel and remote control which will make a good addition to your new gaming PC.
