Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Sound Card (70SB073A00000)
Customer Review: Excellent Sound Quality, X-Fi Effects, Value
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought a Dell PC from Dell Singapore and requested X-Fi ExtremeGamer Sound Card for S$130 more. I heard about X-Fi and wanted to try it out. Indeed, it didn't disappoint at all. It runs smoothly under Windows Vista and it even can run concurrently with SRS Wow in Windows Media. It depends on your preference. I found most music become "alive" when X-Fi effects are on. A minority works better with SRS Wow on concurrently. Compared to other sound cards that offer 3D, high signal to noise ratio, enhancements, it has performance not worse than any other and yet cheaper. Excellent audio and value!Customer Review: There is still a reason to buy addon on sound cards...
Summary: 5 Stars
For years now I have been using the ever-increasing quality integrated sound cards in motherboards. I tend to buy higher end motherboards so I've stopped considering aftermarket sound cards. I'm here to tell you there is still plenty of reason to invest in them, especially if you're a gamer.
The sound coming from my years old set of speakers with this card is phenomenal. I highly recommend it for the price. I chose this card because it supports a front panel line in to allow you to hook up the sound inputs on the front of your case or tower.
Customer Review: Perfect Card
Summary: 5 Stars
The extreme gamer X-Fi is a killer sound card, between the EAX 5.0 Advanced HD and the software features like game, audio, and entertainment modes it really enhances any audio one wishes to listen to. Creative includes an autoupdate program which is really nice because it's much faster than downloaing updates from directly off their site. I noticed few people commented on nvidia chipset incompatabilty, fortuantley im running a amd/ati mobo along with vista x64 and have not encountered any driver problems. Good investment. Especially for gamersCustomer Review: Best Sound Card
Summary: 5 Stars
I came through this card while I was checking on Amazon about Creative products, and after reading the reviews, I decided to order one, after few days I received it, was surprised that the card looked kind of small and nothing special, so I installed it, and it was easy to install took me just few minutes, after that I tried to test it, I am at the time been using headphones and the results were fantastic, the sound is clear and the bass and treble are high. Can't wait to try it with 5.1 system. Now have my headphones on all the time :)Customer Review: Great Card
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this card to upgrade from my on board sound card. Mainly I did this to help reduce interference and increase my fps on my games. The card sounds great, installation was easy and the volume panel allows you to customize your sound between games and entertainment. The panel has lots of options including bass redirection and EAX: eFFECTS. Great card for a good price especially if you have 5.1 surround sound or better. Worth the money.
