[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 797381, member: 82144"] Hi Dennis There is also the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOSLINK"]toslink[/URL] optical connector. Not possible without great difficulty as far as I am aware. I think the specs listed on the website are wrong. The 3 3.5mm jacks will give you 5.1 *analog* output, but not 5.1 S/PDIF - you'd have to have some way of converting analog to digital before you could even think about S/PDIF from those connectors... unless they are special purpose (and I don't see anything about that in the manual). [Edit: since the mobo has HDMI I think it is even less likely. Any digital output from the sound chip would be used for that...] mm [/QUOTE]
