Hi,
I have asked this question but I am gonna go into more detail.
So I have an ASRock H97 motherboard and the Astro A40's w/ MixAmp Pro

I am not getting surround sound because I cannot use and optical cable with my motherboard (it does not have an optical port). Basically will I need a soundcard in order to achieve surround sound?
I have tried Razer Surround and I do not like it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
