X-Fi XtremeGamer PCI SOund Card

The Sound Blaster® X-Fi™ XtremeGamer sound card delivers faster audio performance and intense, realistic sound in all your games. Headphone surround sound is better too - so good, you'll swear you're listening to multichannel speakers - and your games will sound richer as you hear all of the crisp, clear highs and bone-crushing lows you've been missing. It's Sound Blaster...on steroids!

X-Fi CMSS®-3D Headphone
X-Fi CMSS®-3D Headphone creates nine virtual speakers over stereo headphones for positional audio that's so accurate you can actually locate enemies by sound. Multichannel speakers are even better with audio cues that let you hear exactly where they are - even between speakers.
X-Fi 24-bit Crystalizer™
X-Fi Crystalizer™ repairs the damage that MP3 and WMA compression causes and intelligently enhances high and low frequencies for cleaner music playback and more realistic movie sound.
EAX® Advanced HD™
Bullets whiz past your head. Explosions shake the room. Take reality to the next level with EAX® ADVANCED HD™ sound effects in games.

I had tried the refurbished card in this line first. I guess if there is a piece of defetive hardware floating around the universe it will find its way to my hands. But I liked the features and sound of this card so well I thought I would try the retail version, I am glad I did. I was expecting the same thing with this one but have been pleasently surprised so far. I am using vista business o.s. Have been told it works with 7 also, just be sure to download the correct drivers from creative website.


sounds good when it works with SLi

If you can get this card to work with SLi mode then it is awesome. I have had alot of trouble with it. I can not figure out what is wrong. Without SLi this card has very good sound

I am a flight simmer and I get unbelievable quality sound from this card. I have it rigged with a bass shaker and 100 watt amp and explosions feel and hear like they are in the room. First time I was hit directly by flak, it caught me by surprise and startled the dickens out of me!
