The mobo indeed has 5x jacks...

1 for the front speakers
1 for the mic
1 for a LINE IN
1 for the center/sub channel
1 for the rear channels

the 1x LINE IN should be SIDE SURROUNDs instead...

mischose my mobo I guess... no biggie tho... my friend just gonna use 5.1 instead I guess. Otherwise he'll get a soundcard..
Ah right I forgot that you need more for full 7.1 sorry not an audio buff lol.
