Fivevolt keying makes the card ineligible for PCIX slots.
Not all of the graphics on the Control Panel appear properly

You won?t always get the perfect audio support from the games you play.
Abstract: Last November at Phoronix we had featured a preview of the Razer Barracuda AC-1 sound card and after taking off its EMI shield we had found that this card depended upon the C-Media Oxygen HD CMI8788 audio processor, which at the time was not supported ...
Until recently, Razer hasn’t been known for their audio products; however, they are quite well known for doing their homework when it comes to a new product release. By pairing a high-quality off-the-shelf audio chipset with a robust board design, a...

Not as much of an FPS increase as expected, Although it is built for use with Barracuda Headphones (suggested) an additional cord is needed (supplied) to hook up speakers or other headphones....
The Razer Barracuda AC1 Sound Card is the first stand-alone sound card Ive used since I had a Diamond Monster MX300, which, at the time, I feel blew the others away. I have friends who use Creative sound cards and to this day, I am not that impre...
