Does the creative x-fi extreme gamer sound card work ok with an Asus pk5 premium wi fi motherboard?

I am thinking of buying this soundcard but ive read it got a lot of issues with some chipsets,i think nvidia chipsets,i am running vista 32bit,anyone using this card with the same motherboard?Does the creative x-fi extreme gamer sound card work ok with an Asus pk5 premium wi fi motherboard?hi tony

yes,the creative x-fi extreme gamer sound card uses the standard 32bit pci card slot and the asus pk5 has 3 pci slots,however you may experience problems if you use the two pci-express x16 slots that this motherboard supports

for example some of the high end graphic cards like the 8800gtx and HD3850 are quite large and can use part of the neighbouring pci slot,however the best slot to use is the end slot near the usb headers

you can find various topics on the x-fi extreme gamer at http://support.creative.com/Products/Pro鈥?/a> the creative knowledge base at http://support.creative.com/kb/ has many issues solved !

also you will find the Sound Blaster X-Fi - Troubleshooting FAQ at http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowArtic鈥?/a> very helpful

however from experience the asus pk5 has no issues with the creative x-fi extreme gamer

any problems let me know

good luck tony !Does the creative x-fi extreme gamer sound card work ok with an Asus pk5 premium wi fi motherboard?Yes, Yes, It does, I have the same setup. I couldn't believe I was seeing this question!!. Great M/board. Bought the Creative card a month ago and teamed with Logistic X-530 7-1 Speaker system, Fantastic!. Good Listening and Good luck
