ASUS chews up proprietary audio calls and spits out aural gold with the Xonar DX, a fantastic gamer's sound card. Read more
The slanging match between Asus and Creative over how close DS3D GX 2.0 really is to true EAX 5.0 is likely to continue, but we found it to be pretty effective during the Battlefield 2 test. One of our criticisms of the Xonar D2 was its less impressive Vista game sound support compared with Creative's X-Fi, and this appears to have been minimised. Although the Xonar DX doesn't have the D2's unbeatable audio fidelity, it still provides sound quality equal or superior to... Read more
Asus' new soundcard will easily cover the needs of gamers for 7.1 high quality audio. Comparing the Asus Xonar DX with the previous D2, the most noticeable difference is its lower retail price. DX's retail package is also less complete than its predecessor's since it includes just the essentials. The new card is also much smaller in volume. Other main differences are found at the chips the new Xonar uses. The driver package includes the ASIO mode offering low latency... Read more
Nice sound for the price. It's good to see a decent Creative competitor. While Creative has hit and miss driver releases, Asus is very regular with their updates. If you look around, this is your best bang for your buck. Read more
Works great,very easy to install. I have Windows 7 (64 bit), so I needed to install the Vista 64 divers (The driver/utility disc that came with the card). Please read the manual before installing, because it has the words "need to connect the power for card to work" on the second page...of course I didn't read the manual when I made my first attempt to install the card...so I learn about that later after reading the manual.

This is better than a great value! My computer is hooked up to my recreation room music system. The integrated sound card was supposed to be Hi Def. After installing the Asus Xonar DX card, the sound quality of my MP3s from my computer through my Yamaha System improved to levels beyond my expectation. This has been the BEST investment in my multimedia center ever; even without all the great added features this card makes available to the user!! Read more
