Would a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum Fatal1ty be overkill for headphone use?

Currently gaming on onboard AC'97 Audio.

Am getting a set of Z5500's for gaming but for Music, combined with a good set of cans, will the Fatal1ty provide much difference when used with headphones only?

Thanks.

Gimp.
 
That Elite PRO looks AMAZING.

Do you know the difference between that card and the Fatal1ty PRO?

I quiet like the idea of the standalone panel rather than the expansion bay.

I dont have any deecent cans as yet but am looking at either:

Audio Technica ATH-A900
Denon AH-D2000
 
Have gone and ordered a Creative Elite PRO and Logitech Z5500 :eek:

So the "Is it overkill" question isnt really relevant now I think as need something deecent to run the speakers off.

Still looking for a set of cans though for night time use for both gaming and music. The CMSS-3D feature on the creatives will also be handy :)
