    ATi DVI to HDMI adapter

    Hey guys, I looking for a ATi HDMI to DVI adapter, I currently have my LCD TV connected to my 4870 through a standard DVI to HDMI connection.

    The thing is I would like to have sound also transfered through this connection. I understand that if I was to purchase one of the ATi adapters they have the capability to transfer sound as well. I found plenty in the US but unfortunately only one for sale in the UK for 15quid, very steep for an adapter imo.

    Anyone know where I could get my hands on one?

    Cheers guys.

    Re: ATi DVI to HDMI adapter

    yes, all you need to do is obviously plug the dvi into the adaptor, but you knew that already

    Don't you need to connect the GFX card to a sound header on your motherboard, atleast thats why i have to do with my GTX 260.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
