Looking for peoples thoughts on a good setup for a gaming rig. Is 5.1/7.1 needed? Or is a money better spent on a good 2.1 set of speakers? Also, is there any point in buying a high-end sound card for gaming, other than freeing up cpu cycles and various codec support? I guess the real question is what speaker/sound card combo provides the best experience for gaming (in sound and performance) rather than for music/movies/recording etc? Right now I have a Herc Fort. III and Creative 5100 5.1s. Any good upgrade options, or keep what I have? Sorry in advance if this is a common asked and answered question, the search feature is currently disabled. Thanks for the input.
