How can I connect my Sapphire HD 4850 card to an HDTV? I don't want to replace the monitor, my HDTV will be the secondary output.

Either stretch your desktop or clone it to your TV, depends on which you're wanting. That won't carry audio though. If you have your audio running through a receiver you will just connect your computers digital/analog audio out to it. If you're sending audio through the TV speakers, you'll run digital or analog off your sound card/onboard sound to your TV's audio inputs (most have analog and some flavor of digital inputs)

What TV in particular? Motherboard? Sound card? (if not onboard)

Just use the dvi to hdmi converter that came with the 4850 and connect it to your tv/receiver. that will send both audio and video.
