    Sound card + front panel audio connection question

    Oh, I had every intention of just using the mic jack on the card itself for recording, I just wanted to get the front panel hooked up to make it easier to use my headphones on the fly. Could the amp in the speaker negatively effect playback? I'm skimming through the thread now, and it looks...

    Sound card + front panel audio connection question

    I just purchased a Creative Sound Blaster SB0570 Audigy SE 7.1 to replace the on-board audio in my computer after fighting with it's incredibly terrible recording quality, and am having some concerns about the front panel audio. I know that the connector for most of the standard front panel...

I called the company I orderd...

    I believe I have fried my video card

    I recently orderd and built a computer, and it has been running great since I got it assembled, however I'm worried I may have just severely damaged it. I had installed the video card with it's stock heat sink and fan, but I had a zalman VF700 that I planned on putting on it once I found out if...
