    Hey,

    I'm planning to buy the Creative Labs - Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro External Sound Card for my Alienware M15x, and I am currently using an Alienware TactX Headset. I just wanted to know if there was going to be a noticeable difference after using this external sound card, and if it is a good buy.

    Thanks in advance.

    From what I hear it's very noticeable.
