Well i took a trip onto the Creative forums and it just seems personall embarressing, that alot of links of "FAIL" and "F**king" this into these great forums and this thread.

http://forums.creative.com/creativel...thread.id=7212

This is totally blown overboard and all i can do is laugh at people demanding this and that, and this should FAIL and you should refund etc.

I mean ffs, every company in world is doing it, Hmm, Intel/Nvidia with over pricing products, product after product of same crap, false advertising, even bloody furniture shops do it.

This will all blow over in a few weeks and only be the original grumpy idiots left complaining, shops wont stop sales nor will i stop buying their products and this is same for many people. Personal opinion matters, dont go throwing it at others. IF you dont wanan buy, then by all means DONT buy their products, thats fine just dont through false information around the place. This is as annoying as Xbox V Playstation threads.

Buy an Asus Xonar. That's probably the best remedy

I remember having a Terratec soundcard in my age-old P166 system in 1997.

They convert the EAX code on the fly and process it using their own engine. So, in effect, yes they do support EAX5, but it's not technically processing EAX code, but instead, converted output.

I believe it's pretty much what Creative Alchemy does.

So in essense... creative are also saying that creative alchemy doesn't support EAX5 and that creative themselves are misleading customers too?
Wow this gets better and better lmao!
