How to fix supremeFx ii Sound Card Issue?

SupremeFX II'S onboard soound is nothing special, it will support EAX 2.0 and Direct Sound so in that respect it will be deddicated hardware acceleration. But if your planning on using digital/coaxial then it will make no difference whether you use SupremeFX II or the extreme Gamming card because all you will get is stereo or pro logic II presuming your AV receiver supports it. But then again if youu have a receiver why would you want too use 3D upmix effectts? Suppose it all depends onn your speaker setup, can you please list it?

Bare iin your mind that EAX has been moore or less abandoned with the neew game titles,and even in due to his openAL and Vista situation.
