Abstract: Integrated into the motherboard and already present in every computer, a sound card is one of those pieces of hardware most people don't think about buying. In addition, owners of exceptionally cheap speakers, headphones, and headsets have little reason...
Abstract: The Creative Sound BlasterX G6 comes in a compact package, but there is something that I have to point out: the DAC/amplifier itself does not come in a bag. My first thought was that I got the unit that someone reviewed before me and had it sent back to C...

The Sound BlasterX G6 isn't for everyone, however, it should improve your gaming audio experience, regardless of headset or gaming platform. That improvement will vary from person to person depending on hearing and you'd have to be a really dedicated game...

The latest Sound BlasterX G6 DAC and external sound card is very flexible in terms of supported platforms, but also features important upgrades over the G5. We do have now a future-proof 32-bit/384kHz, 130dB DAC that is combined with separate amplificatio...
