Am i wasting money?

I am looking to buy a set of Creative Gigaworks G550W speakers. I have chosen them because they are within budget (£200), they are a 5.1 setup, an they have wireless rear speakers. My soundcard is a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer. I could get a better card, but would need to get cheaper speakers.
Will this card be able to get the best from these speakers?
Are the speakers overkill and should i spend less?
Anyone recommend a cheaper alternative 5.1 setup with wireless rear speakers?

Thanks in advance,

Aalindo

Thanks for that. My office isn't very big, so do you think the 550's are too much? Is there a smaller set up with wireless rear speakers?
