Hey I'm thinking of getting a sound card for my 5.1 system. I have thought of getting creative soundblaster Z. What do you think about if anyone have ever used this one or any? 

what 5.1 system is it?

 

and an amp/dac will be better imo.

Creative inspire T6300 5.1 running on my PC but sound is usually on two speakers or not too immersive as it should be on 5.1. Onboard sound card doesn't seem to work for it even though fill option is on. It just runs music on every speaking not making good sound like rear, front, sub etc. Plus YouTube only plays on two speakers. So, I definitely need a sound card.
