I wouldn't say garbage. It IS an audigy. And they do sound decent. Much better than onboard, and many entry cards.
BUT, it sure does not compete with the other x-fi's.
The reason the xtremeaudio is looked down upon so much, is because it is a audigy marketed as an x-fi, and doesn't have the x-fi features.
As an x-fi, its subpar, as an audigy, its good.
The card actually measures very well, quite better than the chaintech AV-710.
