Is X-Fi Fatal1ty sound card worth the invest?

[slimpickinZ]

I just sold my Audigy 2 zs gamer sound card. Newegg has the X-Fi Fatal1ty card for $199 shipped, should I make the investment? I'm a huge gamer and my game of choice is CSS.

This is the CPU board.

Save your cash and get the Xtreme music.

I agree, the fatality isn't worth the extra money, the on board ram isn't utilized by many games yet and unless you absolutely need the front panel don't get it, even then the platinum is a better deal.

Even in Battlefield2, the one game that's suppose to support the on board RAM doesn’t' receive any benefit over the Xtreme Music.
