So, when will there be a PCI-E Creative Sound Card (X-Fi)?
You could almost bet your life that it is your speakers that are the weakerst link in your current setup. The cheapest sound card sounds marvelous with good speakers.

Is this true and how much difference can a sound card make to game performance? Yes it is true, especially when "virtualising 3D", ie mimicking surround sound with only two speakers.

No PC to open, no hassle Check for instance the M-Audio Transit (http://www. m-audio.com/products/en_us/Transit-main.html) Option 2: a quality sound card. The Terratec Aureon PCI or the Creative Audigy 2 ZS would be a minimum. Is the Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic any good or are those just gimmick claims?

I noticed scan had no sound cards between 22.67 (Terratec Aureon 5.1 Fun 6Ch Sound Card) and 90.39 (Creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Music Sound Card).
