A bonus is the optical-out. Too bad they don't have optical-in.

Why on earth would they throw an LAN connector into a sound card???

It will most likely take away from the onboard CPU's load. Also its always good to have two NIC slots

Proprietary hardware = bad juju. Good luck with this ASRock.

Prima.Vera · Feb 17, 2012, 04:23 PM

Can this Scout Mode be hacked to work on older X-Fi boards??

R_1 · Feb 17, 2012, 05:13 PM

Hacked X-Fi software is pretty uncommon these days.

I know right! It would be a hell of a lot better if they threw a wireless NIC (antenna as a result) on it. My rig doesn't have a sound card because of that very fact the wireless card occupies the only "convenient" PCIx1 slot.

X-Fi software has been available on every realtek HD codec for years now

I wonder, . . . . . . isn't this version of soundcore3d nothing but a codec with software ontop renamed to soundcore3d from trustudio, even the Gameblaster AsRock implements on the motherboards themselves is only a codec that runs a custom version of XFi-MB II

this looks like nothing but a riser to me if thats the case, kinda like Asus's old X-fi risers.

hellrazor · Feb 17, 2012, 06:19 PM

Why don't we just get some ambiophonics in? That'll be a billion times better than some shitty scout mode.

That would be taking a leaf out of ASUS's book.
Won't be long before we get Fatal1ty Notebooks and Graphics Cards.

But really, Asrock's been doing a helluva job recently ! a few years ago, Asrock was considered lower than trash! At least where I come from >_>

sclera · Feb 17, 2012, 09:24 PM

i feel sorry for anyone who spends money on a soundcard.

LAN_deRf_HA · Feb 17, 2012, 09:48 PM

Doesn't matter if it's proprietary or not, the Recon3D cards barely do any work anyways. They offload open AL back to the cpu.

Why??? A dedicated sound card sounds sooooo much better...

KainXS · Feb 17, 2012, 10:35 PM

this isn't really a dedicated soundcard, its still driven by the cpu not a dsp

To a certain extent I agree with this. If your mobo is a piece of crap and you throw in a cheapo 30 dollar one then good but spending 100+ when you have a mobo with great onboard sound then you're just wasting money.

Also, I love my ball.

You've got some good pot.

mudkip · Feb 18, 2012, 12:04 AM

Lol this is pure marketing, why would you want a network controller and sound card on the same pcb? You can't expect 'first class' sound experience, as they call it, with a crappy creative chip that's already outdated when its going,to be released and what about eletrical interference? I bet you can hear high frequences noise from the network controller.

yo dawg, we heard you like to derp so we put a herp in your derp so you can derp while you herp while you derp.

"It is a proprietary technology that allows you to hear your enemies from further away, giving you a distinct tactical advantage in combat."

Try using that Scout mode in Battlefield 3. Sure I can hear a tank clanking around from far away. I can pinpoint gun shots accurately. I can hear grenades bouncing around and bullet strikes (a bit overwhelmingly confusing at times) in Metro's enclosed area.

BUT...

everyone's using rubber shoes in BF3! What's use is a Scout Mode in a game that disabled footsteps in multiplayer?

BeepBeep2 · Feb 18, 2012, 03:13 AM

They just wanted to compete with ASUS's Thunderbolt.

It's NOT the first card with audio AND an RJ45 port.
