Audigy 2 Upgrade

[Danger Phoenix]

I have an Audigy 2, which doesn't have proper Vista drivers and I think it is causes issues in some of my games and now with my 8800GTX.

What would be a similar card that I could upgrade to? One with a firewire port would be ideal

Do any of these have a firewire port?

Would the cheapest XFI be better than my Audigy 2:

The only cards that had firewire were the audigys.

None of the X-Fi cards have it.

EDIT :

If you go for the xtreme audio then make sure you get the PCI-E one as the PCI version is worse than the audigy 2 as it has no hardware accelleration. The PCI-E version does and supports EAX up to EAX 3, but not EAX 5.

Right, I just tried my Realtek onboard sound and the game problems disappeared... so it was definitely the Audigy 2.

As long as the Xtreme Audio is on par or better than the Audigy 2, I will go for that - at the end of the day, it is only £30.54:

The Xtreme Music looks nice though:
