Hi all,
Creative's site isn't too clear on what exactly X-Fi is / does. (big surprise, expected better from Creative... )
The cards I'm most attracted to are from Asus and do not sport X-Fi. My big question is what would I be missing in games without the X-Fi thing? Is that tech a "big deal" like EAX 2.0 was, back in the day?
For example I once could explain precisely the difference in positional audio tech between an Audigy 1 and an Audigy 2... But Creative's site would have me believe all X-Fi does is fill in the highs to make audio sound less compressed?
