If i hook up the monitor via HDMI to my computer, will it carry the audio through the HDMI or will I need to use the 3.5mm audio cable as well?

Yes, hooking up this monitor directly to the HDMI port of your computer will carry the audio signal through and sound will be outputted at the monitor's built-in speakers. However, if your computer has a DVI port and you are using an adapter to turn it into HDMI, the audio signal will be absent and you will have to use a 3.5mm audio cable and plug it to the monitor's green-colored audio-in jack to get sound to come out of the monitor's built-in speakers.

You will have to attach speakers to your computer. If your monitor doesn't have speakers, then no matter what cable you use, you will have to use the audio ports on your computer to attach speakers. For example, I currently just leave my headphones plugged into my computer.

This adapter will allow one to use a "regular" HDMI cable between the computer DVI output and the TV HDMI input. Note: the computer DVI output only contains video and therefore no sound will be carried via your HDMI cable.

You need nothing. You can connect the 3.5 supplied to your computer and then to the 3. 5 jack on the sound bar. The cable is short so a longer cable may be necessary.

Nope. Only inputs are DVI and VGA. HDMI is less likely to be on monitors specifically since it includes audio signal which the monitor won't process (and could play havoc with your audio out from your computer).

Typically, you would use a 15-pin VGA cable, (just like connecting to your computer's monitor) and a component audio if you want sound to play through the tv as well. If your computer has HDMI out, you can use that as an alternative.

Sound comes through any HDMI cable. You don't need a separate cable for audio.The answer is yes.

You have options when installing this device. In my installation, I simply plugged the USB connector on the device directly into my PC and an HDMI cable from the device to my monitor. Video and were delivered to the monitor. Another option is to use the Audio Out connector on the device to deliver sound to another device such as your home theater receiver. So, the answer to your question is Yes the sound from your computer will play through the speakers of the receiver.

There is a cable that came with your monitor, one goes in to the headphone jack on your PC, the other end goes into the connection labeled PC/DVI AUDIO IN

The HDMI cable works as expected but if you are connecting it to your computer and only have DVI connections, then no, the audio will not work. If you have an HMDI output on your computer, make sure the video card is connected to the motherboard with the bi-pass cord (i forget the name)

A VGA port carries video only, not audio+video like an HDMI cable does. You'll need to run audio through a separate cable (usually through a 3.5mm headphone jack) no matter what adapter you use.

I don't know what you're asking but Display port & HDMI can carry sound. DVI can not

Problem I had with this is I was going from my DVI port on the Mac to HDMI using an adapter cable, but the DVI port doesn't carry audio, only video. My work around was then wiring an audio cable from the headphone jack of the computer to my surround system. (In my case I used a 3.5mm to RCA cable). Gets messy with extra wires but it does the trick for now.

Dear Customer, Thank you for your question on our DVI to HDMI cable. In the set up you have described to us, you will need an audio cable as the DVI portion is not capable of carrying sound.Please let us know if you have any further questions. Thank you, BlueRigger LLCService@bluerigger.com

Yes but it will need to be through hdmi. The monitor also has no speakers so you will need to use headphones or some other means of listening to the audio.

If you are connecting your monitor through a HDMI to VGA adapter, it should be one that has the audio split out to an audio jack. You can plug your speakers into that jack.

DVI cables only carry a video signal, the HDMI can carry audio but when its converted to Dvi it loses that capabiltity
