Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I had the first-gen SB Live! and I played extensively with their software suite, I know what you are talking about, to my ears it always sounded a bit metallic.@TrailRunner
These days you can download the Win10 iso with no issues, they even have that media creation toolkit. I want a win7 key in order to install windows 10, that's all.
It was AWESOME : people were saying there was a real difference when playing the first Unreal with Aureal in the PC compared to Creative's EAX. EAX was just a set of filters applied to sound while Aureal was able to calculate and replay the sound with all the echoes and whatnot.
Sound processing in hardware with a DSP, was really calculating the sound refractions and echoes. And I think it also had an onboard amplifier. Question: what happens if you install it in a system with Windows 10? Are there at least some basic drivers to make it work? I see some Aureal 1 boards...
Bah, for 6.5% Nvidia won't give a flying f**k, they enjoyed far fatter revenues last year. Bloomberg said 15 billion USD was pumped in the GPU market the previous year. In the end, the only winners of the mining craze were the credit card companies considering how many sealed 3090s I have seen...
2600k is a lost battle today. I run a 2600 non-k, on a z77 M5F and the only reason I got it, is that it has updated bios available to boot from nvme. Since then I moved to x99 and will gift that z77 to my GF which runs a C2D.
