could be your X-FI, i remember there where a lot of people with similar problems due to the cheap capacitors on the sound card and people where even going as far as to solder on higher quality capacitors, try removing your X-FI and enable your onboard sound, play a game and see if the problem remains.
it happened to me when upgraded to my current system, i found out it was my x-fi card throttling with my new mobo , so i had an audigy 2 card lying around popped it in and it has'nt done it since. i popped the x-fi card in another lesser pc and it doesn't do it on that pc... so its definitely mobo related, it probably can be fixed with a bios update.
I think it's a problem with IRQ conflicts. Try removing every other PCI card and moving the XFI to a different slot.
problem is that my gfx card take 1 of the slots due to its too fat http://www.edbpriser.dk/Products/Screenshot.asp?ID=52429&Product=385243 and if i move to the other (white) slot its touching my gfx card,if i can fit it in..think there wont be space enough.. then i only got the black slot left :/ and will i work in that? (noob question i know) so basicly i get rid of my xfi to check if prob still there update bios and last option is a new xfi ? btw heres some info bout my irq IRQ 0 Systemtimer OK IRQ 1 Logitech PS/2 Keyboard OK IRQ 4 Kommunikationsport (COM1) OK IRQ 5 Intel(R) ICH9 Family SMBus Controller - 2930 OK IRQ 6 Standarddiskettecontroller OK IRQ 8 System CMOS/realtidsur OK IRQ 9 Microsoft ACPI-kompatibelt system OK IRQ 13 Numerisk dataprocessor OK IRQ 16 Intel(R) G33/G31/P35 Express Chipset PCI Express Root Port - 29C1 OK IRQ 16 NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX OK IRQ 16 Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB Universal Host Controller - 2937 OK IRQ 16 JMicron JMB36X Controller OK IRQ 16 Intel(R) ICH9 Family PCI Express Root Port 6 - 294A OK IRQ 17 Intel(R) ICH9 Family PCI Express Root Port 1 - 2940 OK IRQ 17 Intel(R) ICH9 Family PCI Express Root Port 5 - 2948 OK IRQ 17 Marvell Yukon 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller OK IRQ 18 Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB Universal Host Controller - 2939 OK IRQ 18 Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB2 Enhanced Host Controller - 293C OK IRQ 18 Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB Universal Host Controller - 2936 OK IRQ 18 Creative SB X-Fi OK IRQ 19 Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB Universal Host Controller - 2935 OK IRQ 19 OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394-værtscontroller OK IRQ 21 Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB Universal Host Controller - 2938 OK IRQ 22 Intel(R) ICH9 4 port Serial ATA Storage Controller 1 - 2920 OK IRQ 22 Intel(R) ICH9 2 port Serial ATA Storage Controller 2 - 2926 OK IRQ 23 Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB Universal Host Controller - 2934 OK IRQ 23 Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB2 Enhanced Host Controller - 293A OK alot of it sharing ,but i dont know anything bout this stuff

I'm not sure because I've never had this problem, but that seems fine. I've only heard of problems when it's sharing an IRQ with a video card or something like that.
