??? Audigy SB0570 7.1 OEM

I just bought an Audigy SB0570 7.1 OEM.

What kind of Audigy is that, ES, SE, LS?

Is it identical to a SB Live 24-bit (which I think is the name of the budget card for the moment), so I could use its drivers if a new one is released?

Can I install the latest OpenAL from openal.org?

In Battlefield 2, I get stutters if I activate Hardware acceleration. If I put Software, it works properly. I know the board doesn't do hardware, so I should put Software in every game I play, right?

In the Device Control app, should I change to 16-bit before I play games?

Thanks a lot for those who answer, because info for this card is almost non-existant!

that card is definately not the ES (SB016x), nor is it the LS, haven't seen that model name before

however it could be either the Audigy Value or SE, whichever of those two is the OEM model (the same chip iirc)

yes, it should be one those two: LS or Value, they are phisically almost identical.
