Creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Sound Card

Sound Blaster X-Fi: The Sound Blaster X-Fi sound card delivers faster audio performance and intense, realistic sound in all your games. Headphone surround sound is so good, you'll swear you're listening to multichannel speakers and your games will sound richer as you hear all of the crisp, clear highs and bone-crushing lows you've been missing.

Speed: Win big with a powerful audio processing engine that boosts real game performance by up to 15% over motherboard audio and still gives you the fullest audio effects possible.

X-Fi CMSS-3D Headphone: This feature creates nine virtual speakers over stereo headphones for positional audio that's so accurate you can actually locate enemies by sound. Multichannel speakers are even better with audio cues that let you hear exactly where they are—even between speakers.

X-Fi Crystalizer: Revitalize your compressed game sounds with the X-Fi Crystalizer. Hear crisp, sharp gunshots and deep, booming explosions for the most intense gaming experience ever. The X-Fi Crystalizer also repairs the damage that MP3 and WMA compression causes and intelligently enhances high and low frequencies for cleaner music playback and more realistic movie sound.

Surround sound: X-Fi CMSS-3D matches the sound to your headphones or multichannel speakers and positions specific audio elements—such as voice in the center and ambient sounds in surrounding channels, so your music and movies sound more alive.

Cinematic movie sound: The Sound Blaster X-Fi sound card delivers THX certified surround sound and includes Cyberlink PowerDVD software with DTS and Dolby Digital-EX decoding via free download for an unbeatable DVD movie watching experience.

Advanced audio and music creation: A dedicated audio creation mode supports near-transparent conversion between any resolutions, digital-matched recording, low-latency ASIO support.
