I keep hearing about the card included in the bundle not being as good or still using CPU cycles and not having its own cpu to do the job for it.


The card that comes wiht the board is not a true x-fi, it depends on software support.
Not sure about the card included in the bundle as I have not used it as I am running a PCI-e Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty .......... and that card sounds great.
