Looks like you motherboard has a coaxial digital output. If your 5.1 receiver has a coaxial input you could connect them with a simple RCA cable.

Did you mean a 5.1 home theater receiver/dvd player like the HTZ-370DV?

If so, you need to decide whether you want to use analog or digital interconnects. You can use a stereo to RCA splitter to connect the analog out from your sound card to the RCA inputs of the receiver. Or if it's digital, you need to find out which type of digital it has and get the appropriate interconnect.
