I could, but it's expensive and it's not helping the CPU. The Audigy is helping the CPU, does hardware mixing, and has god output quality.
That is sooooooooooooooooo outdated. Look at any benchmarks comparing the two in recent years and you will see that if there is any increase at all it typically results in a <1% increase in framerates. And dmix handles mixing very nicely nowdays.

That's indeed so true. Even embedded devices with much less cpu power
can handle multiple streams resampled and mixed in software.
Well, I used to love my GuS (hardware mixing in the 90s) and I'm not paying 150€ for a card who can't even do hardware mixing. Software mixing works, until your workstation is heavy loaded.
I say no to sound cut !
I really prefer to give away 30€ on eBay and get an Audigy 2 ZS which will do the job well.

Heh, my systems run at extremely heavy loads and still no issue with sound and software mixing. (Usually handbrake running in the background pegging out the cores)
