I'm not sure I understand. What is the reverb problem you're having? What games? And how do you mean best use of reverb?

Some games will use reverb to simulate being in a cave or what have you... but there's also effects you can add such as by using EAX Effects, but that will simulate the effects and IMO sounds like ***.

You definitely don't need something that expensive. Maybe an AuzenTech Bravura, HT Omega, or maybe the Asus Xonar DX
