Sound Blaster X-Fi X58/P45/P43 Series Motherboards

X-Fi Xtreme Fidelity is the new audio standard from Creative that makes your music and movies sound way better than before. X-Fi technology breathes life into songs, restoring the detail and expanding the music to surround sound.
X-Fi CMSS-3D technology expands your stereo MP3s and digital movies into surround sound over multi-channel speakers, stereo speakers or even headphones. Voices are centered in front of you and ambient sounds are moved all around you.
X-Fi Crystalizer technology restores the detail and vibrance to your compressed music and movies. All the highs and lows are intelligently enhanced, ensuring you'll hear everything in crystal clear clarity.
EAX® ADVANCED HD 4.0, with its state-of-the-art Multi-Environment rendering and reverb modelling, delivers a much more realistic and immersive 3D gaming experience than your motherboard audio ever will.
 

Due to changes in Windows Vista's DirectSound3D implementation, certain legacy DirectSound3D games will have its audio compromised, resulting in only stereo output without any effects. Creative ALchemy is a powerful tool that restores the EAX effects and full surround sound when running these DirectSound3D games in Windows Vista so that you can enjoy true 3D interactive gaming again.

Native OpenAL support is a cross-platform 3D Audio API used by many games and music applications developers to deliver superb 3D audio simulation. Since the Sound Blaster MB includes native OpenAL support, you can be assured of an incredible 3D audio experience on many PC game titles.

Other audio effects such as EAX® reverbs, Smart Volume Management and a 10-band graphic equalizer allows you to enhance your music even more. All essential audio effects and controls are conveniently placed in a central and intuitive console. In addition, a suite of cool software is included to cater to all your music needs, whether it is managing gigabytes of music, singing karaoke or just simple audio editing.
