  Duration of ownership: 3 Months

  Strengths: Perfect for music, modest price and easy installation. Awesome sound.

  Weaknesses:Basic features

  Overall Evaluation: For the music buff looking for a quality sound card delivering awesome sound this card is for you without breaking the budget. This card uses the same audio chip set used as in all of the X-Fi lines but does not have gaming capabilities and is meant for pure music.Excellent product in it's class and I have used it and Creative's higher end X-Fi Extreme Music card.

  Strengths: Just a sound card,no more

  Weaknesses:Not worth to be named x-fi

  Overall Evaluation: Despite being sold as an X-Fi card, this particular model does not use the X-Fi chipset. In fact it uses a variation of the Audigy 2 SE chipset. This is further confirmed by the fact that this card uses different drivers than the rest of the X-Fi line, and is not recognized as an X-Fi card in games. The main problem with this is you cannot uses any of the X-Fi features in games like you would expect. Try using this card in Battlefield 2142 and you will see what I mean.It is really out of my expect.Creative sound cards are good, but not this one. Creative puts this product into market is like stealing money from consumer.

  Strengths: It is a sound card.

  Weaknesses:Poor compatibilty.

  Overall Evaluation: Maybe it was just my system setup, but this thing didn't work very well. It couldn't handle my TV tuner being plugged into it without muting the sound. It started out sounding good right after I installed it and then it would turn normal clicks into what sounded like "pfft". I will be sticking with my onboard audio, it sounds and works much better.
