Chaos said:The decoder is useless. The audigy2 zs will work better off the analog outputs. If you use the digital out and pass it thru an external decoder, you'll only get stereo outputs cos the audigy cannot do DD encoding in hardware. Wait a month or two for speakers and get the Altec Lansing HMX 7051. By the spec sheet it should blow both of those speakers out of the water.

Nice idea but then, I need to keep in mind the cost also. The Z-5500 is not available in India and the Z-680 costs 30K. WAAAY too much for me. If I buy it from aborad, then it will cost me around 12.5K. Also, I am going abroad at the month end. So, I need to make my purchases then.
And abt the decoder...... I want to use it mainly for the speakers as the Z-5500 has an onboard decoder but the Megaworks doesn't. According to the company, it will be better if I buy the decoder as then I will get genuine Dolby, DTS, etc... .effects. Also the Decodeer has a host of inputs similar to the Z-5500. And if I buy the decoder, I do not need to buy the Platinum Pro.
And I guess, the whole of this page has all of my posts. Sorry but I couldn't help replying to the many good posts here. Bear with me..... at least till I catch up on what all is happening on this site.

Nice Rig. But why XFX??? They are really bad overclockers. And I have almost exactly the same config like you. Same Mobo, processor. But I have a BFG 6800GT. IT oc'es like crzy. And what is the max oc of your 6800GT?? Please post it here.
But I do not have as much HDD space as yours.
And as Darky says, don't go for Powersafe and that too not 400 watts. Go for 500 Watts Antec(or 480 or 550 as Antec do not have a 500)
