This is Scott Morrow btw :) purchased a system from you folks, we all know how hard it has been to get a perfect sound card upgrade to work with both SLI and Nvidia 780/790 Motherboards. Please consider the following. Plugged it in and it works flawlessly, only drawback is that you cannot run 3 way Sli as it is a PCI slotted card. I've asked them to consider making a PCI-X flavor as a suggestion. Card has no Creative bloatware, and is based off the best C-media Oxygen HD engine/chip. Sounds great, works great, no crackle at all. HTOmegaClaro+ 24bit, 192KHz 7.1 surround, Dolby Digital Live, Pro Logic IIx, Dolby® Headphone, DTS INTERACTIVE, DTS NEO:PC.

Won't give a price for it that is up to you but it works like a gem.

Scott,
 
I think it would be great if we could offer a greater selection in sound cards.
 
Bad news, only .1% of our builds actually utilize a sound card.  They can be expensive, and many people only need to use the onboard sound.  My $100 mobo at home has digital out which sounds amazing on my home theater system.
 
The need for such high-end sound cards is getting lower and lower with all the high-end audio on motherboards these days.  Only people doing audio recording or high-end video should ever consider a high-end audio card.
 
But again, I will show Misha this and see if we should offer this brand.
