AuzenTech X-Plosion ok for gaming?

I'm currently using a Audigy 2 ZS on Vista 32 which works ok except when I use a mic in msn and skype voices will often distort. It was fine in XP so guess it down to the shoddy Creative drivers?

So I thought I'd upgrade to a NON Creative card.

I've got quality 2.1 speakers and do movies, music and games.

I read good things about the AuzenTech X-Plosion which is the top end of my budget.

Is it fine for games as I read it's not so good for EAX?

I thought it was only the new Prelude based on X-FI?

What kinda fancy effects?

But the creative drivers are awful still aren't they?

My bad... for some reason I thought it was. In that case grab a X-Fi Extreme Gamer 7.1!

Doesnt seem to be much choice!
