Realtek ALC898 Vs SB X-Fi Xtreme Gamer

[capdas]

Hello! Well that's it! I have those two options and I don't know which one to choose…
it's for gaming mostly and I use the 2.1 plus center speaker (it's like a 5.1 but without the rear speakers).
thanks!

Hola! Pues eso! Tengo esas dos opciones y no se cual elegir…
es para jeugos sobretodo y uso los 2.1 mas altavoz central (es como un 5.1 pero sin los altavoces de atras).
gracias!

hola.
te explicas como un libro en PDF sin PDF en el harware :troll:
la realtek es esta ¿no? y la SB es esta ¿correcto? ahora falta que expliques si la SB la tienes o tienes que comprarla por que según otras ramas la tarjeta de sonido INTEGRADA la tienes en tu nueva placa base
P.D dicen que de tanto ir el cántaro al rio al final se rompió ;D

@Franziskaner:

hello.
can you explain how a PDF book works without a PDF on the hardware:troll:
the realtek is this one, right? and the SB is this one, correct? now you need to explain if you have the SB or if you have to buy it because according to other branches the INTEGRATED sound card is on your new motherboard
P.D they say that the more the pot is taken to the well, the more it gets broken ;D

Thanks for your answer! I put the title a little different... I think...
I have the integrated sound card on the asrock z77 extreme 4 motherboard and from my old computer (already bought) the sb xfi xtreme gamer... now I have both installed. but I would like you to explain the qualities of both... if the integrated one takes many resources or on the contrary (since I think I am not very short of power supply) the sb takes many Watts...

I edit!!! the ones you put are correct!

I have the sound card integrated into the motherboard asrock z77 extreme 4 and from my old computer (already bought) the sb xfi xtreme gamer... now I have both installed. But I would like you to explain to me (please) the qualities of both... if the integrated one takes many resources or on the contrary (since I think I am not very short of power supply) the sb takes many Watts...

With the integrated one you have enough to play. The SB will significantly improve the sound quality and it doesn't consume much. If you hadn't bought it I would tell you to stick with the integrated one, but if you already have it I would disable the integrated one and use the SB.
