If you are using regular $50 pc speakers and some $30 headphone then I don't think you would hear much difference. If you place more of an emphasis on surround sound than stereo sound then I don't think the card is worth it. If you dont record audio using the PC then it's not worth it. The ZxR will give you a lot more options but having them and using them are two different matters. **Q: I use a AKG K712 as my headphones for gaming and movies. What would be better this card or the ASUS STX?** A: I don't think you could go wrong either way, but I have to tell you I'm a raving fan of this card. The sound quality is superb, the feature package allows flexibility you won't find with the Asus, and the software package is waaaaay better than the Asus'. I have a lot of Asus products and I like them, but the support and continuing upgrades that Creative offers makes this card my overwhelming pick. **Q: Does this card sound better than the ZX** A: I have not heard the SQ of the Zx however considering the components used on the ZxR are superior I would say it sounds a lot better. I am currently using the ZxR and is by far the best card I have owned in terms of sound quality. **Q: Is this good for music, games, movies, and TV shows?** A: If you go to the input mixer page and select the digital-in gear a input box will open with a left and right gain adjustment and a listen to this device checkbox. If you check that box you can listen to the toslink input with your computer. I use this toslink for audio on computer when I use my Direct tv receiver on a spare HDMI input on my monitor. This allows me to use my headphones when I'm watching Direct tv for the sound. What's really nice is the direct tv receiver mutes its' sound output if it isn't connected to a monitor (it senses the HDMI connection). If I'm selected to the display port on my monitor (my computer) that sound channel mutes. I leave the digital-in live all the time since it mutes if I'm not using that HDMI input. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/1464763-creative-sound-blaster-zxr-pcie-audiophile-grade-gaming-sound-card](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/1464763-creative-sound-blaster-zxr-pcie-audiophile-grade-gaming-sound-card) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-10-24*
