The Asus CSM also has SPDIF, though I'm not sure if it's coax or optical.
Not to be rude, but even if you're right it's a losing battle.Hofy said:I wish everyone would learn the difference. SPDIF stands for Sony Philips Digital InterFace. It is a spec that calls for a 75ohm electrical connection. Nothing optical about it.
Toslink is just one of a number of fiber optic connections for carrying digital information.

Sure about that? I've seen several references to optical being included in the S/PDIF standard (IEC 60958-3).Hofy said:I wish everyone would learn the difference. SPDIF stands for Sony Philips Digital InterFace. It is a spec that calls for a 75ohm electrical connection. Nothing optical about it.
mavalpha said:I was actually pointing out that Creative itself, who pretty much sets the rules in consumer sound cards, doesn't acknowledge the difference between TOSlink and optical S/PDIF; the latter is more common among their own product pages.
VIA notes the difference in its Envy24 line, but every board that actually utilizes the Envy24HT still refers to the misnomer. Give it time, and the name TOSlink will fade into the mists of history. Everyone knows it one way, and I don't think they'll change that in the near future.
