Changed to thumbnail. Damages: 6.8k, but turned to 7k because of the treat I had to give to the guy who got it for me.

Hey congrats!!!

I have a query before I make my own purchase. Why not the prelude? (other than the bling factor)

They are pretty good, especially with the new drivers that allow dts and Dolby encoding. Wasn't dts supposed to be not possible with creative?!?. Anyway I was pleasantly surprised. It can do CMSS3D for the Audio stream encode to dts/dolby and then send it out which is great.

I haven't tried any games yet on it, still waiting for the graph card.

@Gurpartap there is no point to the prelude now. It is 2k bux more expensive for a start and also the dts support is not finished in its drivers yet (according to the last time I read). The only good thing is that the drivers are bloat free. The creative's drivers on download add up to a whooping 135MB, which on install grows to a lot more.

The only problem I have faced till now is that movies are not having the CMSS3D applied on them for some reason although music gets done fine. I think its a quirk of K-Lite Mega Codec pack. I will try and fix this. Also if you have the Dolby/dts encode on, then if you play a HD movie the sound card produces an annoyin sound, so for those you need to turn the encode off.

There is a crazy music creation mode for the drivers that has so many options that it drove me crazy. It allows you to control everything about the sound. I am in the office right now, will post some screenies from home.

Last thing is that this card is a PCI-ex card so that pesky PCI-ex 1x slot gets filled finally.
