    I just hooked up my computer to my 5.1 surround with a $3 cable from walmart. :p

    Edit: The one at my walmart was cheaper

    This option would save you ALOT! of money

    I think that i can configure the 3 ports on my soundcard to act as speaker outs. Is this true? That set of speakers has 3 plugs and I think that the m5790 can use the 3 ports that it has to make due with this.
