That's unlike current DVI-HDMI adapters and cables which do not carry sound. So with the Series 2000 you'll receive a DVI-to HDMI adapter (a board partner option though) which, and make no mistake here, will carry sound over HDMI.

It's completely a secondary process so you have full functionality over your primary soundcard. A pretty sexy feature, especially for those who use their PC as a HTPC and are connecting HDMI towards a HDMI receiver.īy the way do not be mistaken, for your add-in board (your X-Fi or whatever) the system S/PDIF output is not tied up by routing it to the graphics cards. your integrated audio solution and lead it straight towards the HDMI connector where it'll output that sound in 16-bit PCM Stereo sound or AC3 5.1 compressed multi-channel audiostreams as Dolby Digital and DTS.

Now, the card will receive its audio from e.g.

So you do not have to load sound to your graphics card which leads it to HDMI. Unlike current HDMI implementations on PCIe graphics cards, the HD 2400, 26 integrate (secondary) audio functionality into the GPU. Instead of passing a PCM or Dolby Digital signal from onboard audio or a sound card, RV610 and RV630-based graphics cards can directly output audio removing the need of a separate sound card over your HDMI connector.

We already mentioned this briefly, yet it's imperative that you understand that the entire HD 2000 series of cards offer HDMI connectivity with the help of a DVI adapter and again, all cards have support for HDCP.
