I am helping a friend put together a computer and he's gotten a monitor w/ audio built in so it has HDMI ports. Me myself I have always gone with separate speakers so I've never needed HDMI, So I have a few questions:
1) We've selected this Card, which has HDMI built in, is the audio passed through the 4830 or is it generated by the 4830?
2) If the 4830 is generating the sound, does that mean I should disable the motherboard's on-board audio?
3) Would HDMI through an DVI-HDMI adapter produce sound? I am talking about a video card such as the 4770, which says it supports HDMI but only has DVI ports.
4) I've only considered HDMI through ATI cards so far; is there anything different about NVIDIA's that I should know about?
Thanks a lot for any answers I get.
