AUDIGY REVIEW (FOR TOM)

Hy everybody!!! I'M new of this forum!!! I wanted to ask to you some clarifications about the review of CREATIVE AUDIGY 2 NX and in particular on the conclusion of the article: "Overall, the Audigy 2 NX cannot be said to be the ideal sound card for the gamer, because the processor load rate is, in all cases, much greater than what can be obtained with a good internal sound card,". Being interested to the peripheral for my notebook ACER SERIES ASPIRE 1605LC I wanted to know if the amount of processor occupied( which is in the order of 14% in the DirectSound 3D hardware and that increases to 18% with the EAX ) regards only the system that you have used for the tests of the AUDIGY or it's for any CPU?
In both cases do you think that a Notebook with a CPU of 3Ghz , 512 mb of ram ddr and a radeon mobility 9000 with 64 mb could fill the gap of AUDIGY 2NX (in the field of the amount of CPU occupied in the 3d games) or else the audigy 2nx is only for playing audio or video DVDs with a sorround audio????

thanks!!!

PS: sorry for my horrible english!!!
