Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2008-07-09 
Very good sound card
I like this card a lot.It's way better then my old one,which came with Abit mother board.There is a lot of software comes with this card.But if you have Nvidea chipset this card has some issues,so you have to check with Creative labs if they fix it. |  | Reviewed on 2008-06-24
im liking this for cod4
My old sound card was not providing accurate sound in Call of Duty 4 with headphones. I figured i'd give this a try since i heard the CMSS-3D the x-fi had was great. The sound the x-fi giving me seems to be a bit more accurate than my previous card | | Reviewed on 2008-06-14
AMAZING SOUND CARD GREAT BUY
The BEST 10+ it works what an awesome sound card it actually works
i've been frustrated for years about my Auzentech 7.1 thx gpu but i actually found a soundcard that WORKS !!!!!!!! | | Reviewed on 2008-05-22 
Still bugged and now doesn't have MP3 Encoding!!!!!!
This card is bugged to death with problems. MP3s randomly play at twice the speed. WMAs suddenly won't play and instead hiss or screech. To top off this incredibly poor bundle of rubbish, they won't even provide you with MP3 encoding so you can rip your CD collection - you have to buy that separately. This is incredulous for such an expensive card. I will NEVER buy from Creative again, their attitude and expertise with technology is worse than ever!!
Update (05/25/2008) - The "Super Rip" mode was generating garbage when I ripped using the "surround 5.1" option. I sent a support ticket to Creative and they fobbed me off with an article on how to record audio! Well, for starters, I'm no idiot and know how to rip CDs! On top of that, most of the email contained advertising for other products. It seems they don't care about their customers at all - they just want their money.
Well, I'm shoving this card in my old PC and I'll be getting an Asus Xonar D2 soon. I had to return several products in the last 6 months. It seems most manufacturers can't produce a quality kit any more. What's going on with tech these days? Does anything work? Some friends have told me to "hang in there" with X-Fi and wait for better drivers? Well, I don't really care anymore as I will follow Asus now. If they patch the X-Fi that would be great, but this company's record on product quality and customer service is appauling. I'll not be made a sucker again. | | Reviewed on 2008-04-15
sound card
Device manager is constantly needing to be reassigned. Is constantly resetting to default. I do not recommend this product. | |
