I have the astro a50s and i was wondering how i can use it with my motherboards S/PDIF out.

The motherboard i am using is the ASUS Rampage III Black Edition.

Any help on how i can use the 7.1 capabilities on my headset with the motherboard will be well appreciated

Thanks!

From the manual you need use either usb or optical cable to connect the transmitter to the PC, and your MB ( ASUS Rampage III Black Edition ) doesn't have the "Optical Port" in the back panel so you have to use the usb cable.
Also you need update the astro a50 firmware too.

Does it not support any sort of optical out?

Only the optical cable.
