They say on the X-fi box that it will upgrade your gaming performance by 15%. I have a hard time to believe this so im asking you ppl who have a X-fi what u think.

If u can compare it to a sound blaster 2 Zs it would be great.

P.s. Im really close to buy one but i still expensive.

Don't know so much about that big of a gain over the 2zs but over integrated sound definately, integrated sound really puts a load on your mobo.
 
Any dedicate sound card (like the X-Fi) takes alot of load off the CPU, since with integrated the CPU is processing all of the audio, and with a sound card the card processes it all, not the CPU, so you will see an increase in performance.

Now if you're going from something like the Audigy 2ZS to the X-Fi, you wont see much if any improvement FPS wise.
