December 3, 200718 yr Could someone recommend a decent sound card For FSX using Vista 64? I am presently using onboard sound (Abit AW9D-MAX) MB. Hearing high level of sound using default AC while sitting at KIAH Gate d-10, until going to spot view and then back to 2d cockput view, when FSX initializes with no engines running. The volume of sound is relative to specific location (Airport and where A/C is parked).ThanksWilbertAbit AW9D-MaxThermaltake W0106 700W PSUIntel QX6700 QuadcoreVista Ultimate 644x1G Ballistix Tracer (PC2 8500)2x150GB SATA WD Raptor - Non Raid2x320GB SATA WD SE16 - Non Raid2x IDE Light-On DVDRW 165H65BFG 8800GTX OC2 768MB 626MHz Core Clock - nvidia 163.753x SILENX 120X25MM FANS + 2x 10in XCLIO Wind Tunnel Case FansDanger Den Water CoolingEnermax temp/fan controller Wilbert
December 4, 200718 yr I believe about the only thing out there is the Creative Labs XFi series. Any of them will do the job.

December 4, 200718 yr Auzentech all the way. Lightweight/stable drivers, great performance, excellent support, same features, cheaper price tag. If you have a modern main board, I would probably even recommend not to get a sound board at all, because the integrated audio chips have become very powerful and some of them are comparable to mid-range separate audio boards.Pat
