    I know EAX isn't that popular anymore but the games I play are somewhat old and sound noticeably better when EAX 5.0 is enabled. But my laptop doesnt support EAX5 (has a realtek soundchip) and I've heard of a few external soundcards/software solutions that enables up to EAX4.0 but I want to be able to get up to 5.0. Is there some soundcard that I had overlooked that supports EAX5?

    (btw before anyone suggests, Im not gonna go with the eGPU method and buying a card for the pci slot)
