Audigy SE
Xtreme Audio
Podobnost viac ako vysoka, lisia sa snad kodekom a mozno prevodnikmi (XA ma o 8dB vysie SNR ratio).
Na vsetkych fotkach ma XA prelepeny chip, pravdepodobne na to, aby ludia nevedeli, ze nema EMU20K1, ale len CA0160-WDTBF (= Audigy SE). Ked si pozriete normalny X-Fi chip, vidno, ze ma na chipe taky "vystupok", no tato nema. A cenovy rozdiel - v alze cca 1000SK (760 VS 1760SK) - to uz nie je na zahodenie. A este citat z webu:
Rovnaky HW, rovnake drivery, atd....a ziadny Crystalizer.The entry-level model of the X-Fi series, the Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio, does not actually have the EMU20K1 chip but is actually a rebranded Audigy SE, using the same family of chips (CA0160-WDTBF), and even the same drivers. Thus, not only is all of the X-Fi related processing done in software, but it also lacks basic hardware acceleration just the like SB Live! 24 bit, the Audigy SE and other budget Soundblaster models. This is further confirmed by its not using the same drivers as the rest of the X-Fi family, its not being recognized as X-Fi capable hardware by some modern games, and even in the similarity of the card's profile to the older Live! and value Audigy series, as well as user reports of it slowing down applications and games. The card is not explicitly marketed as supporting the "X-Fi gaming mode", and there are no official implicit or explicit statements regarding its having hardware acceleration or not.
Co z toho vyplyva - nekupovat , radsej prisporit na Extreme Music. Neviem, ako je to s ostatnymi modelmi, ale skusim zistit...
