QUOTE(cyew86 @ May 1 2009, 01:48 PM) i read that Creative X-Fi with XRAM could give some performance gain to the games that could utilize the feature but i still do not believe in upgrading sound card to improve performance. the gain imho, would be very minimal the rm250 could be saved to upgrade to a better 3D card/Processor/RAM in the future  btw, may I ask, could HD4670 support Full HD monitor? I know gaming may be out of question, but I just want a lag free Windows environment, and also HD movie watching  when I have enough cash in the future (or when Starcraft II is out  ), will get a better 3D card  i m using x-fi sound card with x-ram..frankly speaking..doesnt notice much different and i believe only few title support it..if not mistaken few games from ID software support the x-ram features.but of cos ...nice sound card is essential for 5.1 channel gaming!footstep!!bullet drop sound!! waiting someone to buy my 3870 and i will get the sexy 4770!!
