    It's a good thing, but not essential.
     9 August 2024 
    It makes sense to buy for the sake of surround sound and positioning (games, movies), but it is assumed that you either have good headphones or surround sound speakers.
    Yes, the sound is indeed noticeably better (5.1), but this is mostly achieved through software. I had an MSI Gaming 3 motherboard, and it came with a program SoundBlasterCinema2 for Realtek, and the sound was almost like that of this card.

    Overall, I'm satisfied with the card, there were no problems with the drivers, nothing disconnects or crashes. Programs handle the audio output properly, and everything is fine in games, too. I didn't notice any delays compared to the built-in sound, nor any extraneous noise.
    The price is highly inflated. It's not worth that much. Buy only used or with a good discount.
    I didn't find any obvious drawbacks, except for occasional clicks when playing system sounds (notifications, etc.).
    Oh, and the drivers are a bit unclear; they have an older program called Sound Blaster Command (which I use, but on their page it's labeled as Driver) and a newer Creative App (labeled as Application). But something didn't work out with the new one, either you need to install the old one and then the new one on top, or I didn't figure it out, but the new program didn't work, and I didn't feel like digging into it, so I left what was working.
