xfi sound blaster card is a must for a sound card, Great on BF2 ! Ultra high sound quality is amazing and it improves the speed of your PC whilst in game !
I have the platinum edition of this card and it great the music is the same card but without the front panel! I got it from PC world for a £100 about 4 months ago, the Music card is going for around £80 at the time on promotion.
Should be cheaper now though! |

I'd recommend the xFi Soundblaster card too. I have the music one and paid £78 - ish at Scan International. It performs brilliantly in BF2. |

Dude, i would advise you to wait a couple of days for the 7900 GTX 512mb should be arriving around 9th march, alternatively you could go ATI then you are looking at the x1900XTX. Dont know for sure which is faster as there have been no reviews on the net so far, but i suspect nvidia are guna nail it!!! either card is guna set you back around £400ish probs more!!!! |

7900 do u mean 7800GTX? The ATi 1900xtx is nearly £200 cheaper than a 7800tgx 512 and is clocked at 650mhz with 48pixels, i cant decide  |
