Perhaps I have been misinformed.

I thought creative were legendary for their poor drivers.

As I have stated, I'm using their OpenAL BETA driver, and so is Ramrod. We havn't had a problem with it, except Ramrod can't get his extra panels to work (such as the EAX effects in Windows (isn't needed for games)) although they work for me.

They must have got their act together.

The amount of issues with their older 3d cards as well as Live stuff with VIA chipsets was frightening.

Am I the only one who hasn't had a problem with their Audigy then? (bit shocking if so, I usually get the problems!) :erm:

Care to state your sources ?

I have only had 2 of there cards, and once they are working they are a nice card, however when they play up ( alot ) they are hell.

on topic though I believe someone asked for a good maker of a soundcard now while OCUK have had some really bad rep points for delivery and after care I myself have had not one single issue in over 20items ordered from them.

Even ordered one of there basic full systems for a family friend and I have to admit they was quick and prompt.

Anyways here is a good sound card selection i shall let the more knowledgeable chaps point into a good cost/quality card for yourself.

(p.s: I would fancy a nice 7.1 card ;) )
