creative have a habbit of naming the same card with different names:
sblive value,
sblive gamer 5.1,
sblive 5.1
sblive mp3
etc.
are all the same thing but with another bundled soft.
even platinum is the same, but with the "i-drive"
[u can simply buy sblive value for 320 shek,
and add hoontech addon for 200-300 shek,
and you have live-platinum. isn't it nice ?]
in any way the platinum is not worth the money:
for 1200 shek one can get a real audio card (24/96)
instead of this toy.
why would it be different with audigy ?
