Hi i am looking at buying an Asus A7v880 SKT A VIA KT800 ATX Sound GiG LAN USB 2.0 FSB400 SATA133 Retail Box

On the panter products link i get a useful bit of information telling me it has a 5.1 channel sound system.

I need a 5.1 sound card in it so that i can make use of the speakers i am getting (5.1 logitechs) now is this motherboard 5.1 or not the ebuyer link seems to give more information.

Normally Surround Sound is achieved by using the Sofware that comes on the Motherboard CD to change the Line In and Microphone Sockets to Front/Rear Speaker and Subwoofer Speaker.
