Creative adds Sound Blaster X-Fi to PCI Express

The new PCI Express Creative sound cards each feature a striking design that screams "high performance."

Creative will equip the world's best professional PC gamers, who are now competing in the Championship Gaming Series (CGS), with the new PCI Express Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional Series, the official sound card of the CGS, the only worldwide professional video gaming league.

"Audio plays a huge factor in professional gaming, where every competitive advantage can make the difference between winning and losing. The Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatal1ty edition sound cards significantly enhance any professional gaming rig, enabling us to hear what we can't see and perform at our highest level."

said Johnathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel, world champion gaming legend and exclusive on-air analyst for the CGS.

"I demand extreme performance from my PC, and I won't settle for less than Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi. It gives me the huge advantage of hearing my opponent before they can see me, and finishing them off before they can do anything about it."

said Yazan "Clown" Ammari, Counter-Strike Source member of the San Francisco Optx CGS team.

Leonard Yap, Marketing Manager for Creative Labs Middle East added,

"We've developed the PCI Express models of our Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi gaming sound cards to meet the specific requests that we've received from end users. We've made changes to the architecture of our X-Fi processor in order to deliver even more performance and provide the best audio available on the PC today. You'll know why it's worth the upgrade to PCI Express the second you hear it."

The new PCI Express Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series sound card includes all of the features of the PCI Express Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional Series but adds an internal I/O drive for quick front panel connection to headphones and headsets.
