I'm going to upgrade my speaker system. I have a creative 2.1 setup and it sounds ok but it doesn't have enough bass punch for me and it gets a little distorted sometimes. If I have all the speakers in front of me will I notice anything from the 5.1? Basically the fronts and rears will be right next to each other so I'm not sure if I will get any better surround effect then just stereo. I'd rather spend the money on a better 2.1 than 5.1 if it's not going to do anything for me. I'm not even sure if games have discrete 5.1 encoded in them anyway.
