If I get a pcie 2.0 card like a radeon 4850 and plug it into a pcie 1.0 slot.. Do you think the HDMI output can carry 7.1 sound + video? Or would that be something that pcie x 16 doesn't support?

Guys, I think i just killed the video card in my HTPC. So I want to upgrade vid card but not the rest of the pc. my current motherboard is ABIT KN8 SLI Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD two PCI Express x16 Can I put a PCI Express 2.0 x16 card into a PCI express x16 slot? Thanks

Hey guys, I have an HTPC running a 9800 GTX video card. I like to watch Blue rays and play some video games (Left for dead, WoW, Defense Grid, etc..), very little TV.. I want to buy a new 46" LCD TV. I am a bit confused about which model to buy. I'm not sure what I'm really going to get...
