    I am considering buying this card. I bought the logitech g35s but I'd rather use my own earbuds which are more portable. I like how Windows 7 detects the G35s as a 7.1 device. Can anyone confirm this is the case with the Steelseries Siberia USB souncard? How is the virtual surround with it? The G35s dolby headphone offers excellent 3D position, I'm hoping the siberia card is also good. The g35s look like this...

    This probably doesn't help at all but if you didn't know the usb card has a mini usb that goes to a cable that goes to regular usb which is kind of annoying. I don't have one but I was looking at it too and thought that would be annoying if you plan on using a laptop.
