hey all. Im seriously looking into getting the MSI K8N NEO4 SLI board, and my selling point is basically the onboard creative 24bit audio. I need to know if anyone knows if i can connect 7.1 speakers to this board with all analog inputs. I have creative 7.1 speakers, but on the Mobo, theres is only 5 analog inputs, where as my current 7.1 realtek has 6. (front/sub, left/right, rear l/r, side l/r, mic, and line in) Im not sure if they have some kind of switching tool, but i cant use the SPIF, or optical, so do any users know if 7.1 is possible with just analog? THanks so much.

Kevin

Creative Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit Hardware
8-Channel with Dolby Digital encoder, 6 audio jacks, CD-in, front audio, and both optical and coaxial SPDIF Out


6 audio jack, I guess that would be enoguh for 7.1 speakers!
Oh and prozac that board IS good!

The Gold Editors Choice is jointly awarded to the MSI K8N Neo4/SLI Platinum for the combination of robust operation at stock speeds, top-notch overclocking abilities, and the best feature set and feature performance of the available SLI boards. An enthusiast may be happy with either the DFI SLI or the MSI SLI board, but buyers looking for the best feature set that truly enhances system performance will choose the MSI. The 2nd SATA2 controller, dual PCIe LAN, and hardware SoundBlaster Live! 24-bit are a standout combination in a crowded field of top-performing motherboards.


Jointly would be with the DFI...
