Hello....I got some Aztech ISA sound cards as part of a box of parts of Ebay. Does anyone have any experience with these? I haven't tried them, but my first impression is.... trash them.

They were used in oem boxes. But they can have good compatibility, integrated opl3, and for all I know don't suffer hanging notes. They don't look as big and impressive at creatives as they are more highly integrated. I doubt they are audiophile territory but for fm synth and sb pro capabilities they are fine. Some have additional things like on-board midi chips, srs3d, disney sound source compatibility, etc etc.

I'd have a closer look before chucking them.
