Ive been wanting to get a new sound card, as my integrated sound just isnt doing it for me anymore. Ive been leaning towards either the Creative Audigy 2 ZS, or the Creative XtremeGamer (I want creative for the eax support), but Im not to sure what I want. Anyone here have any reccomendations? I live in Canada, if your planning on reccomending a link to a specific shop.

I have the Creative XtremeMusic which is similar to the XtremeGamer. Got it OEM. Is good, speeds system up by taking over audio processing and makes things sound nice, mp3s sound a bit better too (at 128 to 256 kb/s).

EXTREME SOUNDCARDS FOR EXTREME PEOPLE! Who ever comes up with these retarded names.
Well go for the Creative, at best OEM or some value version. Though I think EAX is overrated...
