Yes it does, HDMI output.

Oh fishsticks...PLEASE say they supply a hdmi cable lol. I've always used DVI>HDMI

If a HDMI cable didnt come with your monitors? if it has a HDMI input?

You can get a HDMI-DVI adapter - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CB-029-OK&groupid=1929&catid=1753&subcat=

Make sure its male HDMI (to go into the board) to female DVI, not Female HDMI to male DVI.

Or a HDMI-DVI cable for a few quid.

See

not the end of the world, picking a Z68 based board has enabled you to still use the PC without a discrete card.

Surely it would be male HDMI to go into the board and male DVI to go into the monitor?

Not for an adapter.

male HDMI into the board, to female dvi, then male dvi cable from this to the monitor.

Your post was a bit confusing as the comment seemed to relate to a HDMI-DVI cable.

You linked to the correct adapter but then after that suggested a HDMI-DVI cable as an alternative with the follow up comment about getting male HDMI to female DVI.

I see you've now edited the post so that it makes more sense

I have altered it so the cable comment is under the other comment, but it was all "adapter" related.
