1. You do not have a sound card, you have a Realtek ALC889 chipset built into your motherboard.
2. Yes, you will be able to get surround sound from that Creative speaker system for most content that supports it. There may be come newer content that it does not support, namely anything using the newer EAX 4.0 or 5.0 formats. For the most part, though, you should be good.
