5.1 sound for my pc

[bikdel]

i did not consider buying an extra sound card while purchasing my pc because it came with onboard 5.1 sound......

what i have some to know is that there are different connectors in my computer.......

1.mic in/center and subwoofer out
2.line out/front left and right out
3.line in/rear left and right out

these jacks are the comon headphone type.......
my 5.1 speaker set has the RCA kind of connectors
what can i do to connect them to my pc?.........
i am sure we get adapters but i wanna know the product name and cost involved........


Do we get powered converters/recievers for joining non-powered speakers as well? what will be the cost of such products?....... where can i find one?

the whole appratus for connecting rca cables to your computer involves purchasing three sets of rca to 3.5 mm headphone jack converters which cost about rs 50-100.You would need to buy an amplifier to run non powered speakers or you can build one for yourself by referring
