Sound Cards

[James Bond]

I know there are a million sound card threads, but I need a soundcard for gaming.
I need a card that is very accurate when it comes to gaming with headphones. When I hear a footstep, I want to know exactly where it came from.

I don't have too much to spend, so what are my options?

X-Fi is supposed to be the best for headphone gaming.

Either an XtremeMusic (not XtremeAudio) or XtremeGamer would be a good bet.

They have been as low as ~$50/$60 on sale in the past.

No problem. What kind of headphones are you going to be using? (for curiosity I guess )
