ps: and I love you, or something. ps#2: forgot to mention that you need at least a 4600 series for actual HDMI goodness, just how it is. |
It's for a low powered HTPC, so the 4200 fits the bill perfectly. Saved me $50 over buying some other card card and uses less energy in the long run. I can buy another S/PDIF cable for like $5, which is still cheaper so thats good.
Thanks for the info that it doesn't support 7.1. At least now I won't be wasting my time trying to get it working.
