Hopefully a helpful REVIEW....
- Pros: I hopefully can write this review to help those of you decided whether or not to upgrade. I have owned the Audigy 2, XtremeMusic, XtremeGamer Fatal1ty, and now the Titanium. If you own the first two, and you care about premium sound, UPGRADE! I upgraded for the separated mic port, the Digital Dolby Live, and the PCI-E. If you get the "crackle" from a crummy bus system (like the ASUS P5B Deluxe), UPGRADE. This card helps alot. However, PCI-E was an improvement for my system, IT MAY NOT BE FOR YOURS. If you like the idea of a Digital signal encoded in real time, DDL does that! I have a 25' optical cable and it works beautifully. I own the Z5500's and while I have a tuned ear, the average person would still be able to tell the better utilization of the center channel and the rest of the speakers. The software and drivers are better, but still room for improvement (see below). The Auto Mode Switcher is great! The Default mode changes based on your preferences to game or program.
- Cons: I tried to strip the drivers before I installed the new card to get a fresh start, but I may have done it wrong, but the card’s software was not fully functional. I had to format:( As other reviews have stated, there is no mic boost yet, but I have only had problems with that off and on. I do voice chat with my friends on Xfire, and sometimes I am crystal clear, other times I am really soft. However, probably 80% of the time I have been fine. But creative….Get a driver for a mic boost:) Lastly, with battlefield 2142, the sound card is not recognized right away. I have to redo the sound settings every time I run the game. When I do that, it says that I don’t have the hardware for the settings. However, to get around it, I still program the settings that I want, then I find a full server, try to enter it, when I get the “full” screen, the sound comes back. I have tried in both Entertainment and Game Mode, yet it still doesn’t comply. If there weren’t any cons, it’d be 5 eggs.
- Other Thoughts: Hopefully this review helps you; I may post a video review to do an in-depth look at the card. I think the card is great. Like I said above, anyone will hear a drastic improvement from the Audigy or XtremeMusic, but the other cards not as much. If you want the DDL, a separated mic port, Optical In and Out, Front Audio and Mic capabilities, improved (but not perfect) drivers, the auto mode switchers, a 4th input for your 7.1 speakers (yep it has another line for that), and you think its worth the extra money. DO IT! I demand premium sound and I will pay the price for it. It makes you feel like you are more in the game. However, I want to emphasize that this card has THE EXACT SAME technology in it as the Fatal1ty Xtreme Gamer (except for the DDL). If you don’t’ believe me, go to creative site and pull up the specs of both cards on two separate tabs and see for yourself. Newegg’s specs are a bit skewed. So the other factors have to persuade you.
meh
- Pros: Overall sound is pleasant. Music is good, games better.
- Cons: NO Dolby or DTS decode on S/pdif input.
S/pdif passthrough does not work.
NO 64-bit ASIO drivers (Creative neglected to mention this).
Drivers are very, very flakey.
I don't recommend this card at this price.
- Other Thoughts: This time will be the last Creative product for me. I said that last time, but this time I mean it. :(

Big Improvement
- Pros: Night and day difference from my older x-fi extreme audio card. My logitech z-5500 can get louder and are much clearer.
- Cons: None that I can tell.
Dissapointed
- Pros: In Windows XP 32 bit, this card is AMAZING! Sounds wonderful, works great with my surround sound receiver using Fiber Optic. Worth every cent!
- Cons: If you want to run Windows 7 this card is junk. The drivers are worthless. Forget about surround sound in your games and movies. Creative has responded to my support emails and just said that 'its not supported'.
- Other Thoughts: Too bad their top of the line cards ONLY work with an OS thats 5+ years old...
nice
- Pros: very nice. simple install on Win XP x64 and Win 7 x64.
- Cons: Doesn't fit in the regular Asus Rampage II Extreme mobo sound card slot without bending a few of the heatsink fins.
- Other Thoughts: (I bought an open box RIIE and didn't get a sound card in my box)
