Ok so I have an Audigy Platinum EX, though the daughter board and front panel bay are missing, but hey it was a buck lol. Ok the big question is what to do with it. My Windows 98 PC has a Live 5.1 Platnium, and my P4 has an Audigy 2 ZS in it, while my main system has Soundblaster Cinema 2 on an ALC1150 that sounds just fine on my x540 speakers. So is it worth it to use the Audigy in my main rig over the onboard, or should i use it in another system, but not the Windows 98 AXP system, i need the game port on the live in it

    From what I have read...the ALC1150 is a pretty good onboard sound card.  I would use the Audigy in another system...so far, you look pretty well set up...any other available system?
