| Sound Blaster live - performance comparison to onboard sound? |
| << < (2/2) |
| TOK:
I went back and tried to find the article, without success. It was on one of the popular gamer sites like Sharkyextreme, and used the 3DMark software as a benchmark. This might all be irrelevant to MAME, but it made a substantial difference in current games at the time. It also only applied to the standard SBLive!, not the later Audigy, etc. |

I ended up pulling one in favor of on board sound after reading an article on the subject and doing a speed comparison with on board vs. SBLive... Its been a few years, but I gained about 10FPS with the onboard (NForce) sound. Didn't notice a difference in sound quality. --- End quote --- Now that you mention that, I think I may have read the same or a similar article. Perhaps I'll stick with the onboard sound since it's a fairly recent ASUS mobo. Thanks! |
