Audio thru HDMI? Would like to know if this card carries audio through the HDMI.

It is strange that I only get audio if I set the refresh rate to 30Hz (at 1920x1080). If I change it to 60Hz, I get no sound. This is a connection from HDMI on the graphic card to HDMI of Samsung HDTV 40"...

Why do you connect audio separately? HDMI should be sufficient to give you both video and audio if you hook it up through a common receiver. At least it works in my case. Try that. Bob.

No. HDMI carries audio but dvi doesn't, so you need a separate cable for that.

It appears to me that (by looking at the pictures of the hs420) the hs420 does not have an audio output, that the audio is passed through and available only over the hdmi. The hs420-ad has a digital optical output that is tied to output A, for connection to an external sound source such as an AVR.

I have a GTX 670 and the hdmi works for full resolution and sound. I've read the display port gives full resolution chat i Don't know about sound

Depends on the year your MB was made. If it's some 2009 models or all earlier, no audio through hdmi.

This card has a HDMI output. You should be able to connect directly with a HDMI cable.

Yes this card can process sound . But its only output is through the HDMi and can not be used separatly from the Video. This card has audio codecs built into it.

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.

This device does not output any audio through HDMI, it simply passes the audio through the connections it comes from. Coax to Coax, and optical to optical.

no, no audio will be passed through the hdmi cable, these are PASS THROUGH hdmi sources (video only - no sound, always NOTE the (pass through) notes in the product description, in PASS through... audio never works), you would need to connect audio to one of the other connections on the rear of the receiver

This card has built-in 5.1 surround audio (AC3) pass-through capabilities, the new GPUs and graphics cards support a single HDMI connection direct to a compatible TV or receiver. This single cable carries both the HD video and 5.1 surround audio for a clean, high definition connection. I personally haven't used this card for TV, and can't verify the results due to the vast number of TV and receiver options available. But, the AC3 and 1080p quality is stunning.

Sound card, yes; video card, no. But I use only the built-in sound card (I didn't buy a separate one).

Mine does output audio just fine over HDMI. Conveniently, when I use the Catalyst Control Center shortcut to switch to that output, it also switches my primary audio device from my main sound card to the HDMI audio device.I haven't tested the 30Hz vs 60Hz issue mentioned by Voodoo1226, but that could very well be a function of his/her tv/monitor rather the the graphics card's output.

HDMI includes audio, that is what HDMI is all about (both video and quality audio). Typically 5.1 surround sound. GREAT !!!
