Pros: None, buy a better sound card.
Cons: Motherboard sound went out, bought this knowing it would fit my computer. After installing the card I activated my computer, sound came from it as though it was coming from my motherboard, a little bit uneven sounding at times, but overall it was fine. I decided to install the drivers provided with the card, after a very very long install, it told me I needed to restart my computer. After the drivers download, and the restart my computer would continuously freeze at the boot up screen. I spent a whole afternoon trying to figure this out, I then managed to boot my computer in safe mode, and reverted to a back-up on my external hard-drive. prior to returning to the back-up save I removed the card and the drivers from my computer. I won't even bother trying to sell this card to some poor sap, better to just trash it and save someone else the trouble that a Creative sound card costs.
Other Thoughts: Better to buy a card from a manufacturer that won't try to kill your system
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: - No problems getting it working, other than the usual mobo and case alignment problems.
- The HD Audio cord for my case fits on the card, so I can use the headphone/mic jacks there. It wasn't clear if the card had that interface, but it does (the group of pins sticking towards the back in the primary picture).

Cons: - None yet.
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Comments I have read are true the sound is much better than the MB built in circuitry
Cons: None so far installed 1 week ago
Other Thoughts: I use headphones from my PC 95% of the time. Would like to see a customized app for specific brands and models of headphone to achieve maximum efficiency
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: I bought this to upgrade my system with a Logitech Z906. Installed fine.
Cons: Seems to bad jack out of the box. When testing the channels, the C/Sub all played out the sub. Tried several cables and the same. Not much of a way to test the Z906. After getting this, and looking at others, I wish it had a Toslink. I may go that route.
Other Thoughts: Going online to Creative to RMA was easy. Keep receipt as they want it scanned and attached to RMA request. At this point I am waiting to hear the outcome. This may take a while, since it also seems UPS lost or mis-sorted my package. I still have faith in Creative.
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: - Cheap
- Good brand
- Good brand
Cons: - The card doesn't change from Speakers to Headphones automatically
- When I plugged it in the first time, Windows recognized it and started to work, but when I installed the drivers it stoped working
- I contacted Creative, they told me to do some troubleshooting and it started working with their drivers, but after a little while the sound started to sound electronic and I had to go back to the drivers that worked at first

Other Thoughts: Do not waste your money with this card, better get one a little more expensive that works.

Terrible product, buy something else.2/17/2019 11:57:34 AM
Pros: None
Cons: Product was difficult to install and produces terrible sound
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Downloaded the latest drivers from their website instead of using the CD (something you should generally do anyway), turned off the onboard sound in the bios, and the sound quality is far better than the onboard.
Cons: nothing yet
Pros: Compared to today's on board audio, the sound is slightly better...barely. Worth the price for the better quality of sound. Unless your an audio file you won't be able to tell the difference between this and today's on board audio.
Cons: Does not support 5.1 even though creative boasts it does...IT DOES NOT!! it's false advertisement and should be well know as such.
Drivers work barely and take quit a while to install, poor coding on creatives part for drivers. Driver install has been a problem for Creative since the early year of 2000. Seems like unless you spend 300 bucks on their hardware they don't have the time for us as consumers. Back in the day ( mid to late 90's ) creative was the go to for sound, now days they are barely acquit as far as sound is concerned. If your an audiofile pass this card up it's really no better than today's onbaord realtek audio, especially with no 5.1 support.

Other Thoughts: Look else were for a sound card, it doesn't support 5.1, only in it's week try at 5.1 headphone environment. ( which windows does better)
This card should be at a price point of no higher than 15 USD.
