What is Dolby Digital Live? I see that the Fatal1ty mobo supports it and comes with one. So....what is it? Thanks for the help.
 
DDL basically means that the soundcard/onboard sound chip can encode a 5.1 channel audio stream, such as surround sound from a game, to a Dolby Digital stream and output it digitally. For those of us with Z680's, external sound decoders, or receivers, it lets us use one wire instead of 6, and allows the external amp do bass management.
 
Lusting for one yet, Mr. "I've spent 3x the amount on my audio subsystem than the remainder of my computer" BO(V)BZ?

You might just get decent receiver integration yet.
 
GMC, Yes :D

This comp was fairly cheap to throw together, so it's more like 6x though =]
