REVIEWS:
1) Turtle Beach Riviera Sound Card: After a weekend of frustration trying to use the built in sound on my new ...,.@#@^$%& mobo i finally broke down and purchased this Turtle Beach product. My experiences with other sound card
manufacturers were OK, but since i just wanted sound for basic games and video , i thought , "why not?"
The card installed without a problem, provides great sound, a joystick port and MIDI in interface (cable not provided).
A great value sound card that performs like it cost alot more.
2) Almost Perfect: This is a very nice pci sound card, and it produces quality audio.
