I have X-fi Titanium (2nd gen). Had no problems in the past, but suffering from tearing after moving to Win7 RC 64-bit (no issues on RC or beta 32-bit). It could also be from moving to new CPU and 4GB RAM, but the OS seems most likely cause. 90% certain it's IRQ sharing issue.
Most games don't support EAX, so don't buy for that, get it for quality of sound.

All the Realtek ALC models do hardware processing. THey are so accurate, Creative Labs now certifies the ALC 88X series to run Creative Labs software.
