Go to solution Solved by Scia,

Where can i find out which soundcard i have and also if it supports 7.1 to headphones?

 

First of all, 7.1 Headsets are bad, if you havn't bought it yet, get a normal 2.0 stereo headset (2 ears + no room = 2 speakers).

 

The best way to find out is with your motherboard manufacturer, check the model and see if it supports 7.1.

 

If the 7.1 headset is USB, your soundcard doesn't matter at all.

 

Otherwise, check how many plugs the headset has, and check how many sound (3.5mm jacks) you got on the back of your PC. (pink is mic / green is stereo)
