I recently purchased an Epox 8RDA+ Nforce2 motherboard and it seems to be working just fine. However, I have a major issue with the sound on this board. Apparently some genius at Epox decided to make it so that the 3 output plugs on the back of the board would be shared for 2 speaker and 6 speaker mode. No other add-on board is included, so, not only is there apparently no digital output on the board but if you are using a 5.1 setup you have no mic input. I'm sorry, but this is just ridiculous and totally unacceptable for those of us who play online games. I mean, We can't have our system both configured for 5.1 sound and a mic at the same time????!!!
Apparently there's some front bracket you can buy to allow mic input and output from the front, yet it doesn't seem to be for sale anywhere. In fact there's not even any mention of it on the Epox site.
Please someone tell me that I'm just doing something wrong, or that something was left out of the motherboard I received, because otherwise this is just ridiculous...
