In reality, there’s no special MOBA chip; the driver sets pre-rendered frames to 0 or 1 for popular MOBAs, reducing delay. You don’t need a new card—adjust this in the Nvidia Control Panel under Manage 3D Settings. ...

True Dolby Digital 5.1/7.1 needs proper setup: Frostbite supports real multichannel, not virtual Dolby or 2-speaker. You need a sound card with real Dolby encoder and SPDIF out, and 5.1 system/headphones with Dolby decoder and SPDIF in. Many drivers/game default to stereo even with a decoder; stereo sounds weak compared to real Dolby. Some cards (e.g., cheap X-Fi Extreme Audio) lack Dolby Digital Live, so they output stereo from games. Ensure latest drivers, not just Windows drivers. ...
