 Features
Your Movies and Music. Way Better.

Why settle for basic, built-in sound? Your music and movies deserve Xtreme Fidelity. Add the PCI Express Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio sound card to your PC and turn your downloaded music into your own personal concert. Watch DVDs or downloaded videos with full cinematic surround sound. Plus experience 3D audio and EAX effects in games.

3D Crystalizer Revitalize your downloaded music and movies
Restore the details and vibrance your music and movies lost during compression. X-Fi technology intelligently enhances the highs and lows so you'll hear it all-crisp cymbal crashes, wailing guitar solos, screeching tires and booming explosions.
CMSS Surround sound from your stereo music and movies? Yes!
Expand your stereo music and movies into surround sound. Voices are centered in front of you. Ambient sound appears all around you... just like a live performance. Listen on a pair of desktop speakers or a full 5.1 speaker system.


Hear headphone surround that sounds like multichannel speakers
Slip on your headphones and X-Fi technology moves the sound away from your ears and into the space around you. You'll be surrounded by nine virtual speakers and feel like you're sitting with your favorite band or in the best seat in the movie theater. Games sound better too with positional audio that's so accurate you can locate enemies by sound.

Enjoy Realistic sound effects in games
Bullets whiz past your head. Explosions shake the room. Take your games to the next level with EAX® ADVANCED HD™ sound effects.

AlchecmyAnd if you're using Windows Vista™, Creative ALchemy restores surround sound for the same great gaming experience.

good basic sound card, sturdy construction. It was very easy to install. I would not recommend this card for gameing or in combination with hi end speakers, but overall I am very satisfied.       » READ MORE

 Rated by Kris_H, June 7, 2008

The card was easy as pie to install. At first, I thought something was wrong, since I was getting no sound, but a quick check in the settings revealed that I had to uncheck the "Automatically enable headphone settings" and "Automatically mute speakers" options. These only work when you use Intel HD Audio-compatible front audio.       » READ MORE

Don't waste your money, not a true x-fi card, it's fraudulent in my opinion, and I think NCIX should stop selling Creative products entirely. Read up before buying!      » READ MORE

 Rated by spblue, March 13, 2008

This is an excellent choice in this price range. Optical in/out, mic jack and 4 speaker jacks. The sound quality is very good, I didn't notice any kind of interference like I was getting with my on-board sound card. Recommended.      » READ MORE

Great card! Was amazing at how much of a difference this card sounds compared to the onboard. Also freed up some of my processing speeds by specifying hardware. Also got it at a cheap price. Thanks NCIX!      » READ MORE

All in all, this is a good purchase. I wanted Front Panel Access and I get it in XP, just not in VISTA yet.      » READ MORE

The first time I installed the card, I had to update my motherboard BIOS version. When I slotted in the card under the new BIOS, I lost all RAID Config. I just needed to recreate the RAID in the BIOS options and it was all fine.       » READ MORE
