Audigy

[RadioHead84]

I have an SB audigy along with a kick ass 5.1 pro media system...the pro media system rules and i would recommend it to anyone who loves music and sound in games. anyway..onto the question...

Since i am recently going to buy a new comp, would i see a big diff in the audigy and the audigy 2?

iSales pricing trends make it look like Creative is lowering inventory in anticipation of a product revision. As such, I would recommend waiting.

As for the A2 over the A1. IMHO the sound is better, but with a rev on the way, I wouldn't dump the cash for a few months.

rev like pci-e and stuff like that...makes me WANT to wait..but i prob cant. Revs to the audio...eh i dont think anything they can do can really blow me a way.....or make me want to hold off on buildng a new computer..but then again, i can just use this one untill something better comes along.

What speakers/headphones you got?

Sound quality may be more noticeable on higher quality speakers.

EDIT: What about games? There must've been a difference there

With all the changes going on this year, PCI-X and BTX, I'm going to wait to upgrade anything.

PCI-E (Express)

PCI-X is something else
