Might be the wrong place to ask this but, I'm not actually on any PC hardware forums I can think of right now, except here where people seem extremely knowledgeable.
So I now have a HDMI capable receiver, and I realised that I could actually use my graphics card as a sound card too, with a bit of fiddling around the PC will now bitstream 7.1 from the HDMI out, which is great of course.
Now, I can imagine that EAX won't work with this, but then I can never be bothered booting XP these days for the odd EAX only title that doesn't work with ALchemy. What I want to know is are there any other games that are not compatible, can I use OpenAL in this setup and get surround or will I only get 2.1? What about ALchemy? Anyone any idea?
