Audigy or Audigy 4?

I have the 1st Sound Blaster Audigy. I was wondering if upgrading to the Audigy 4 would make any difference. I'm not an audiophile or listen to music very much, but I do like games. I like to use headphones, not a multi-speaker setup.
 
I'd say its not worth the upgrade...

If you're a PC gamer you'd probably get more use out of an X-Fi Xtreme Music
 
I think the upgrade will help, but it'll be only really noticable on the game side
 
It's not worth the upgrade.

From a gaming standpoint, EAX is what you would be looking at. The Audigy already supports EAX 1 - 4. The Audigy 4 has the same level of support for EAX. The X-fi would be what you want to upgrade to if you want more support for games (EAX 5).
 
Ive been using my Audigy since the beginning, the only reason Im considering to upgrade is because I got a 7.1 setup and 5.1 is all this card supports.
