I like the Sound Blaster X-Fi range for standard soundcards.

I run the xtreme music version for normall stuff and a M-audio for producing.

There are more expensive SB cards but I think the extreme musioc does everything needed for games and standard stuff.

In terms of listening to music, does it sound good? (better than my cheap Soundblaster Live 5.1) will i know the diffrence. To me, this soundcard sounds good, due to my tweaking of the mixer and what not.

I had the SB Live 5.1 before and it does sound much better to me.

Not a patch on the M though.
