  • My first sound card

    May 24 '01
    Pros: decent effects, 3D effect, easy installation
    Cons: outdated and has an ISA slot interface.

    Summary: About 3 years ago, I got my fist computer from my dad. Originally it was a 133mhz, 32mb RAM, 2GB HD, computer with some decent speakers. But my dad wasn't happy with the performnance of it so he went to a computer shop to have a new board and ... read more

  • Dated is a Relative Term

    Nov 26 '01
    Pros: High quality and inexpensive with good MIDI features and playback.
    Cons: "Dated" ISA interface, quickly being one upped by newer cards.

    Summary: There was once a time when Creative and their Sound Blaster audio cards were the thing as far as multimedia was concerned. Back in the days of yore, not to mention 486SX processors, getting your hands on a Sound Blaster Pro made you the instant king of ... read more

  • Surprisingly good sound!

    May 02 '01
    Pros: sound quality for a 64V card, value, compatibility, software
    Cons: price when I bought it, installation complications

    Summary: When I was in the market for a mid-range sound card about two years ago, the Creative AWE64 was at the top of the list. When I bought it I paid a shameful $70 CAN. for it. Looking back, that is a lot of money for a 64V card when they have 128's and ... read more

  • Compatibility and excellence

    Jan 18 '01
    Pros: Great quality, great price
    Cons: Not extremely new, may be a con for some

    Summary: I purchased this card due to the fact that my computer came with a card that was 8bit trash. After I replaced the card, I came to realize the importance of a sound card, and how much this card beat most others on the market. As a digital ... read more

  • Really cheap helps to make a great system

    Nov 02 '00
    Pros: very inexpensive for very good sound
    Cons: older technology makes it harder to match today's motherboards.

    Summary: Introduction You want that clear, crisp sound that your CD Stereo in your living room produces to be imitated by your computer don't you? As I enjoy doing this and informing everyone of all the beneficial computer products that are out ... read more

  • Great Sound card for the money

    Oct 07 '00
    Pros: Great Value, High Sound Quality
    Cons: Older Product, Provides only stereo output

    Summary: The Creative Labs Sound Blaster AWE 64 Value package was brand new way back when I bought parts and pieced together my first system back in 1997. Since then I have undergone an upgrade which involved scrapping most of the obsolete hardware which was ... read more

  • old but still good, great compatibility

    Jul 25 '00
    Pros: it works, always
    Cons: it's old and doesn't have that good sound quality compared to newer sound cards

    Summary: Creative Lab's Sound Blaster AWE64 was originally released in 1997, so it is definitely old, especially considering how fast computer technology grows. Given that this card is old and that there are lots of cards out that are better than it, why ... read more
