Per the title, got a X-Fi Titanium for a Pci-e slot. Going to install it on an Intel DH61CR mobo i3 setup, didn't know if I'd be
better off with onboard sound in windows 10.

Asus P5N-E Intel Core 2 Duo 3.33ghz. 4GB DDR2 Geforce 470 1GB SB X-Fi Titanium 650W XP SP3
Intel SE440BX P3 450 256MB 80GB SSD Radeon 7200 64mb SB 32pnp 350W 98SE
MSI x570 Gaming Pro Carbon Ryzen 3700x 32GB DDR4 Zotac RTX 3070 8GB WD Black 1TB 850W

Yeah, I was wondering, what is the advantage of a SB device outside a vintage PC, given their sound issues. Onboard is pretty darn good these days and doesn't process the sound unless your MB comes with software that does it, which can be disabled if desired.

I've been SB free for a long time now on my modern rigs, and all the happier for it.

Yes it will work. Or at least the X-fi Titanium in my Wife's PC seems to be working fine. I can't recall what drivers she is using, but she actually was running Win7 Pro originally and then did the Win10 free upgrade when that was a thing.

Midi Modules: MT-32 (OLD), MT-200, MT-300, MT-90S, MT-90U, SD-20

Yeah, you just need to use latest drivers from Creative site, because Win 10 1903 update broke previous ones. But otherwise it's working perfectly fine, I'm using one in my main rig.

Socket 775 - ASRock 4CoreDual-VSTA, Pentium E6500K, 4GB RAM, Radeon 9800XT, ESS Solo-1, Win 98/XP
Socket A - Chaintech CT-7AIA, AMD Athlon XP 2400+, 1GB RAM, Radeon 9600XT, ESS ES1869F, Win 98

Cool, it's been in the box so long unused now I'll be able to fire it up.
