ct4750 sound card -- worth bothering with?
Someone gave me this card. It's a few years old, dating from about
2000 I believe. It comes with a 5-1/4 front panel, ct4850, with microphone jacks and regular PC audio jacks, and 4 cds of drivers and software. The card itself looks to be a $10 or so item on ebay. My system is new this year and has integrated audio. I wouldn't bother to buy a sound card, but I'll install a free one if it's worth doing. So, can anyone advise me if this is likely to enhance the capabilities of my PC for recording, editing and playing audio, or is it too out-of-date? Charlie |

No. It was a good card several years ago then Creative brought out the SB AWE32 which blew it away succeeded itself by the SB Live! and then the Audigy range. If you want a good card that goes for pennies on E-Bay get a SB Live! -- Conor, Same ****, different day. |
