absolutely nothing unless you've spend unreasonable cash on audio equipment, and even then you're getting significantly worse value for your money than when if you went with orthodox audio solution instead of "GAAAYMURRR xXdEADaNGEL420*69Xx" boondoggle.
only thing creative has to offer nowadays is their legacy equipment with EAX support, and even that is retro gaming niche.

Report to your government medical center for euthanasia.

Modern Sound Blasters are worthless. An X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty has novelty value if you wish to play some EAX titles on Windows XP.

>no hardware EAX support
Into the trash it goes.

Asus sound cards are absolute garbage. Worse than any half-decent moden motherboard's onboard audio.

Does it offer balanced outputs? If not, it's worthless.
