I have a Yamaha RX-V367 Receiver that I have a very nice set of Klipsch speakers hooked up to for 5.1 surround sound. My only problem is that my PC only has 3.5mm ports on it. Which their are enough ports to do 7.1 surround if I used PC Speakers but I'm not.
I also have a Nvidia GTX 560 Graphics Card in PC too which i can hook up to the receiver to get 5.1 surround but that brings me to another problem which is why I don't want to do that either unless someone knows how to fix.
The problem is when I run the HDMI cord from my 560 to the Receiver and then from the Receiver to my Dynex TV it fucks up my Resolution bad. If I just run the HDMI straight from the 560 to the TV my Resolution is 1360x768 but if i go from 560 to Receiver to TV it is 1024x768. And if I try to adjust it back to 1360x768 it causes part of my screen to be chopped off. So therefor I don't want to go that rout.
Instead I would like to use a Sound Card to send true 5.1 codes to my Receiver but I don't know which sound card to use to do so.
I'm willing to spend anything in price and would like to have one with a EMI Shielding on it so their is no interference between the sound card and graphics card.
I have 2 PCIe x1 open and 1 PCI slot open for use on my motherboard. I also have a 650 Power Supply so i can power up the card too if need be.
If their is a cable or something that I can use to combine my 3.5mm ports to one set of RCA or HDMI or Digital cable I would use that too.
If you need to know any more information about my PC or anything to help me out please let me know.
