i will still prefer more Yamaha sound card, preferable with external midi card connector (compared to SB16 or AWE) and SCC1 - Yamaha cheap sound card has cleaner output and it has OPL chip. for @all i dont use any COM or LPT ports so i want the bios free some resources - I am mostly PS2

AWE32 with OPL3 is useful for digital sound in DOS games and SCC1 as midi card. Disable com ports and printer ports in a BIOS and you will get free irq 2/3 and irq 7. SCC1 will be used for irq 3/2 address 330. SB awe in dos as 220,irq 7 or 5, dma 1. with Scc1 you also get good midi port so you can …

well... i have different question - if you guys are able to do 3 sound cards in one, why you guys don't design handheld with decent screen and all this sound magic together so i dont have worry about any old HW and enjoy just gaming, something like valve steam deck for DOS/Windows 98 games? 😀

Bloodem thank you for the nice write up. I will look for both of your recommendations - S3 / Voodoo2 or Voodoo 3. I am living in china and those cards are not so ridiculous with price (they are also not that easy to find like voodoo 1 or 2)
