Review on Enhance Your Gaming Experience with Creative Sound BlasterX AE-5 Plus Pure Edition Sound Card: Unleash the Power of SABRE32 Ultra-Class Audio Technology, Dolby Digital, & DTS by Wiktor Paul ᠌

Haven't installed LED strip yet. I immediately turned off all the improvers - I need it to listen to music, in games, as it will be, it will be so. Pros: The sound quality for music is a waste (there is a Direct mode), ASIO works without dancing with a tambourine, finally native drivers work without problems, cool backlighting. It's good that the short one - it entered the lowest PCI-E slot, would have been a little longer - the wires to the motherboard would have interfered. Cons: The price is certainly high, but the sound card is bought for many years. The previous SB Audigy 2 plowed for 17 years and started to crack already a couple of years ago. Well, a nitpick - they would have muddied the RCA connectors on the stereo instead of the mini-jack . Like the AE-9.
