The combination of Creative chip and Auzentech PCB magic was been a success before with the likes of the X-Fi Prelude 7.1. That card fitted a normal PCI slot but today we have its successor which slots into the PCI-e instead. I give you the Auzentech X-Fi Forte 7.1; can this card carry on the success of its predecessor and even go further in terms of sound quality and performance? Time to find out.
