The PCI-e X-Fi Xtreme Audio AFAIK is just a rebadge. The Titanium's use the real X-Fi.

Ask for the one with no Wendel ugly mug?

Heh.

Seriously though it is a new product so you would have to wait a while before they turn up encased only in anti static wrap....

Personally I would wait for Auzentech's (http://www.auzentech.com/site/index.php) new HD audio card.

It was due out in October but has slipped to Jan.

Failing that, pick up a PCI Prelude.... they are AWESOME ;)

Edit: cheapest & nearest i can find the x-fi titanium (without ugly mug :D ) is here (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-Creative-PCI-Sound-Blaster-X-Fi-Titanium-Sound-Card_W0QQitemZ140272938130QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item 140272938130&_trksid=p3286.m63.l1177)

Is there any info on Auzentech's new PCI-E card? (aside from that new Home theater PCI-e card they have) Haven't been able to find any info out at all about them even creating one.

That Auzencard is suppose to be $200 - $250 AFAIK. Almost twice the price of what you can find the Titanium for.

There's also X-Fi Titanium (http://uk.europe.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=1&subcategory=208&product=17927&listby=) without 64mb X-Ram (which doesn't do much anyway) and costs less.
