Creative Sound Blaster Recon3D - Pros & Cons

all-around system that works well with personal computer and cabinet systems
sound is good and they are comfortable and are great headphones other

to fret about losing frames per second to voice and sound processing
No elevator was left unscathed
no X-Fi in sight
you do not get a stand or a charging base
Nothing comes off as hollow or airy
USB charging is flawed
lack of customizations to the sound you hear
lack of components on the board
remove components and increase the sound quality
Pretty much a fail card by the looks of things
certain parts are missing
The microphone is not retractable and you can metric ton lean
Audio playback in both games and movies is beastly
You are using an outdated browser
The card does require a PCIe 1x or greater slot available
the PCB looks quite plain
the music does feel a tad bit processed
the card is quite empty as well
