Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio 7.1 Sound Card - OEM (PCI-Express)

BTW, and this may be a very stupid question ...but does it have to go in the little PCI-E x1 slots .. or can it work in any PCI-E slot ?
Edit ... just read your mini-review and see it can ... thats good my graphics card covers one mini PCI-E, and the other is directly above the graphics card, with the chipset fan cooler right above it, (EVGA 680i Mobo) so would probably be better in either the PCI-E directly under the graphics, or even in the lower SLi slot if it doesn't cause issues?

Well all installed and seems ok so far ... apart from 2 things.
I have creative 5.1 speakers these are detected but on the speaker test page, clicking on the sub makes no noise as it does for the other speakers ?
Listening to music, it still works fine
Also they could/should have a control for balancing the front and rear outputs ....
Otherwise seems OK.
