The X-Fi's specifications are impressive. To wit: The central processor in Creative's current-generation soundcard (Audigy 2) includes 4.6 million transistors, is clocked at 200MHz, and is capable of executing about 424 MIPS ( million instructions per second). The X-Fi, meanwhile, boasts 51.1 million transistors, runs at 400MHz, and is capable of 10,340 MIPS. So in terms of MIPS, the X-Fi is 24 times more powerful than its predecessor.
The X-Fi chip will support a new version of Creative's EAX environmenta audio API, as wel as DirectSound itself and OpenAL.
Creative expects to ship the X-Fi in early September. Pricing had not been established.
Well sounds pretty sweet to me i want to get it when it comes out
