I have been looking around for speakers and headsets now for gaming and I have come across an issue that needs to be addressed. 7.1 channels or 5.1 channel, I have a speaker set(Creative inspire T6300 gaming edition 5.1 channels) and headset(razer Tiamat 7.1). The they both involve a lot of chords and cables that I need to get a sound card for it. But the main issue is which should be better off for gaming and should I switch. Or are they equivalent and I will just plug in the speakers to the sound card? Thanks you guys for quick answers in the past.
