Sound with Clarity

SupremeFX III

Sound Supremacy

The SupremeFX III™ onboard audio solution is an 8-channel HD audio equipped with a

carefully selected 1500uF capacitor that provides a clean, ripple-free audio power – perfect

for enveloping gaming environments. With a metallic EMI cover, and a special layout design

on the PCB, the advanced SupremeFX Shielding™ technology isolates analog audio signals

from digital sources for exceptional clarity and high fidelity, while a golden-plated jack

ensures rich notes reach your ears with a minimal distortion. In real world testing, a signal-to-

noise ratio (SNR) of 110dB was achieved, yielding almost lossless audio.
A bounty of industry standards are supported, including EAX® 5.0 Advanced HD, Creative®

ALchemy and THX® TruStudio™ PRO, so the same great audio experiences found in live

performances, films and recording studios are reproduced faithfully right on the PC. When

bundled with the Sound Blaster® X-Fi MB2 suite, the SupremeFX III™ is the perfect choice

to provide an exceptional gaming experience with realistic sound effects.
