So I setup my surround system today. But I got a cheap receiver because i was trying to save money. It has HDMI, but only acts as a hdmi switcher. I want 7.1 (or even 5.1) but to get that either the game or sound card has to encode the sound output as I'm using optical. I would just use the analog ports on the back of my mother board, but for some reason it isn't working correctly. So anyone know of a sound card that can do this for me? PCI or PCI-e I don't really have a preference.
EDIT: Okay I know what Technologies I'm looking for.
It's called Dolby Digital Live and DTS Connect
I'd rather have a card that does DTS Connect over Dolby Digital Live.
Here's some cards I found, but I'd like to go cheaper:
Creative 70SB088000004 - $99.99
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional 70SB088600002 - $149.99
And these only do Dolby Digital Live.
