The SupremeFX has been updated to include Creative’s X-Fi too. No, it’s not a Xonar hack, but rather the new ADI SoundMAX A2000BX codec that features X-Fi support via software just like you’d get with the X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express, but with EAX 4.0 as well. The P5Q3 Deluxe WiFi-AP @n on the previous pages also features the same sound chip built into the board, however its drivers lack the X-Fi support strangely. We were told that the chipsets weren’t identical and that there was an internal switch, although as we’ve seen from Daniel K in the past, an enterprising individual could probably spread the support. ...
The SupremeFX card still features the EMI shield and it now also includes gold plated 3.5mm jacks as well. It is also still limited to HD Audio rather than PCI-Express like MSI’s X-Fi included with some of its Diamond boards. However the socket it plugs into on the Maximus II Formula motherboard can automatically alternate between PCI-Express and HD Audio, so it can be used for other cards.
