From what research I've done, at least on win7 (which I assume is affecting vista as well) is that the 64bit edition when you have 4+Gb of ram, it runs into addressing issues which leads to the crackling mic issues. What I don't get is why it's random, you'd think it would affect things or not affect things, not some of each. I'll be perfectly clear in wow and 5 seconds later, no one can understand me.

Once you listen to 5.1+ via DDL/DTS you don't ever want to hear about Realwhat.

Grape Flavor wrote:That's a very odd claim, not sure where you got that one. You can most certainly attach a microphone or headset to the Xonar DX. The Xonar DX can also be connected to the headphone/mic-in ports found on the front of many cases, you probably don't need a whole bulky front-bay addon to get those connections.

steelcity_ballin wrote:My one complaint so far about the card is that it was advertised (unless I read incorrectly) to have a front panel hookup. It did not come with one. However, it does appear to have this expansion capability on the card so that I can purchase one in the future.
