I'm also using a vlb cirrus logic 5426 card and a aria sound card (diamond 
sonic sound)
I did not experience any problems with them but I've heard there were some 
problems with some games (under a killing moon)
As far as the prices, I can tell you I pay 400 gilders (=200 usdollar) but 
that was more than a year and a half ago.
