Editorial Review: Product Description: ExpressCard Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook Average Rating:
 Rating:  - It's just so 'meh'Short Part: Pros: -The price is 'Meh'. -Pulls sound processing power away from the CPU (if you have onboard sound). -Delivers powerful sound in very RARE situations. -The seller was amazon certified. Cons: -An $85 notebook card for $20 desktop card performance! Seriously! -You have to shell out another $30+ for any expansions! -I don't have onboard sound, I have a full fledged internal sound card! -Lacks many of the additional features ...

It is a newer faster interface that is not compatable with CardBus. Oh Well, maybe it's time to get a more modern computer so I can use my fancy new soundcard! Rating: - Works GreatI bought this card for one reason - I use my laptop for games, and I am running Windows Vista. The onboard soundcard in my laptop doesn't support any EAX-alike (hardware 3D sound) features, even for only 2 channels. This card supports every last one. If you use Creative's ALchemy software, you can run old EAX titles with full hardware sound, in Vista, when using a Creative card. For games, an absolute must-have. For music, it's decent. It has the "X-Fi Crystalizer", which is essentially a ... Read More |
