Summary: Creative X-Fi Sound Card w/front panel 2010-03-06
Comment: I got this card because it has the front panel (very limited). It requires a PCI ex slot (which I do have). Installed the front panel and the card, loaded the software. It did recognize the new hardware, but would NOT correctly install and never got it to work at all. Took it to a computer tech place and they could not figure it out either. Sent it back and got the Audigy card.

Comment: The product is easy to install and use. Now, I have to close my office door so I don't bother others with the explosions and guns going off!

Summary: Works well! 2010-02-22
Comment: I did have some issues with the drives not working, I ended up reinstalling the drivers and they all took (Windows 7 Ultimate. I'm used to XP Pro.). The other problem I had was that I was left with an open mic and 'What U Hear' was set open so whatever sound was picked up would be echoed in the headset and feedback would build till it was a high pitch tone. It was a bit confusing trying to find the setting in the Creative Console Launcher. I had it in Game Mode and didn't realize that you can chance the last three slots manually. I needed to bring up Microphone FP (Front Panel) and click the speaker to turn it off. I also set the REC to Microphone FP rather then What U Hear and everything works now. This isn't a fault of Creative or Microsoft but will hopefully help someone else having the same trouble.

The other problem I had was fitting the front panel in a 5.25" drive bay. The metal seems to have been folded a bit on the wide side and would not fit in my Cool Master ATCS 840 case. I ended up taking a small hammer and peening the fold so it could fit. Other then that it wasn't too bad. I do wish the cables for the FP were longer. The ATCS 840 is a large case (Full-Tower) and the FP is on the top bay. The card is on the bottom slot so it's a LONG reach. It isn't a problem if you run the cables across but there is no way to hide them. Be aware, the volume control are fine so you'll have to turn it a lot to get it to adjust. The mic volume controls are also nice since you can adjust it on the fly without having to bother with buried menus. Although once set you tend not to have to play around with it. The FP is a glossy black but still looks nice against a black brushed aluminum case.

Overall the sound quality is very nice. It's cleaner then my Audigy 2 ZS. The CMSS-3D works well and does sound nice, too. The three modes make for simple presets and the FP allows you to switch them on and off quickly.

Summary: Perfect 2010-02-21
Comment: I recently updated my computer to Windows 7 and needed a HD sound card. The Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series fit the bill. Now I have sound so clear that when I play it some have thought it was the actual person singing. This card is the best!

Summary: Trash Card, Trash Company 2010-02-09
Comment: Creative used to be decent, but they have abandoned any attempt in the past 10 years to put out decent products, or support anything they make.

This card causes random crashes, of all things, in my video drivers, or ethernet drivers. Creative's answer? Well, start disabling features on the X-Fi. These problems have been going on for more then two years, and are well documented in their forums. Any fix? Nope. New Drivers? Nope. New Firmware? Nope. Any comment from Creative at all? Nope.

This one was the final straw, I'll never purchase another Creative Labs product again. Ever.
