Default *This* X-Fi Elite Pro good?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16829102018

My friend is selling his X-Fi Elite Pro that he bought as a bundle for dang cheap(without the Headphone of course).So, is it safe to buy or will this card be made of cheaper components since the bundle was going for 85 USD i think when it was available.or shud i get a Xonar D2X or something?

PS: Is a Platinum Fatal1ty Champion better than the above card?

well x-fi elite pro is the best of the creative x-fi series.. i had a audigy 2 se before my elite pro and the difference is huge... but i've heard good words about X-Fi Prelude (auzentech) check it out too.. and fatality champion is better than Supreme FX II for gaming

edit: i dont know if its made by cheaper components i've heard that some are made in china some in malaysia and these from malaysia are better just my 2 cents
