What video card, that also has sound, should I use in a Windows 8.1 PC? I tried a VisionTek 7750 and the sound was great, but no touchscreen.

I have never gotten the sound to work on my monitor, but I am using an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660. You do need to have the USB cable coming out of the back of the monitor going into your computer to get the touchscreen feature to work. Took me a few hours to discover that.

If you look up the drivers online from the company (just google Diamond XtremeSound PCI 7.1 Drivers) you should be able to find windows 8 drivers.

I'm not a hardware wizard, but the sound card is a PCI or PCI-E, (same card different buss configuaration), and has no connection to an AGP graphics card slot or an "onboard" graphics processor.

What do you mean? Are you asking if it comes with a copy of Windows 8, or if Windows 8 supports it? It does not come with Windows 8, but Windows 8 does work really well on this board. Asus has complete driver support for every feature this board has. The only feature I wanted to be able to use with Win 8.1 and could not was the default drivers for the LucidLogix feature. If you want to use this with 8.1 you have to purchase an update to the driver set direct from LucidLogix website, I believe that was about $50. If you don't care about that feature, then everything works great. I own two of these, running 16gb ram and GeForce 660gtx cards in them, SSD's as OS drives. I have a SandyBridge 2500 overclocked to 4GHz in one and an IvyBridge 3470 overclocked to 3.8GHz in the other one. These are the best computers I have owned to date, and ive built quite a few.

Replace your motherboard for a Gigabyte motherboard by example. They have PCI-Express x1 ports available in their motherboards. PCI-Express x16 is for video card adapters !

I had the same problem using Win 7-64. I returned it. I purchased another one, it worked for 5 days then stopped. I returned it. Not worth the price seeing you have to keep paying to ship it back. Try another brand. Now I'm waiting to upgrade to Win 8 until I can afford a better monitor because you really need a touchscreen with windows 8.

Yes it is, I am running Windows 8 right now. However, if you are looking for a card at about this price range I would go with the newer cards from amd, like the R9 270. Those are a bit more expensive but they are alot better in terms of performance. Another option you should consider is the Geforce GTX 750. Other then that this card is great!

I don't have Windows 8, but according to the Visiontek.com website, they show a Windows 8 driver for this video card. Go to their web site (www.visiontek.com), select products, then under Productivity cards, select VHDCI, then on the left side you'll see a link under "Latest Video Drivers" for the Windows 8 driver. The direct link to this page is here: http://www.visiontek.com/products/productivity-cards/vhdci.html

video card MB is not listed anywhere i could find, even the dell website had not provided it. to be honest unless it is your first PC or for a child i'm not gonna recommend this one. yeah it's dirt cheap but you get what you pay for. it came with windows xp and i found that microsoft will discontinue updates for XP in april 2014, video card is not easily interchangeable, difficult to access for a novice. also no s-video or HDMI ports on the pc, which really upset me. my advice is for you to look at another PC

If you have onboard sound on you momotherboard or a dedicated audio card then you can used VGA and use your onboard or dedicated sound card might be wise thing to do.

I have this monitor but with Windows 8. The touchscreen works flawlessly, and the picture is great.

I have heard, from LinusTechTips on YouTube, that the ASUS Xonar sound cards are great. I have the DGX, one of the cheaper ones, and it sounds really good.

I, too, am worried about the phrase 'Windows platform' I have an early G5 with a top of the line Radeon video card... from two years ago. Am I good to go?John

This card works with Windows 8.1. Just make shure you have the latest drivers from AMD, not the card manufacturers.
