Cheapest Graphics with HDMI

[Deleted member 70857]

I'm looking for a graphics card to go in a PC that will use a monitor for web browsing etc. But also it needs to have a HDMI port so i can connect it to my TV to watch 1080p videos.

Any suggestions please?
Thanks

u can make do with a DVI port and use a DVI - HDMI cable, that is what I do

What about audio?

Yeah, using a DVI>HDMI dongle will work. Regarding audio, if you have an ATi card the audio will pass through automatically as long as you set the correct playback device, but with an Nvidia card you will need to manually connect the audio header on the card to the header on your sound card.

My 4850 works well with the DVI-HDMI dongle, as reflux said it transmits sound too, I think all the 4 series (could be wrong) have inbuilt sound. Normally the specs will say 5.1/7.1 sound.
4850/4870's going very cheap now.

ATI 4 series has 7.1 support, 2 and 3 had 5.1 I believe. Its the easiest way.

4670 has HDMI IIRC. Not bandly price and will handle most things at a decent resolution.

Will i be able to get sound on my TV through the Graphics Card. AND get audio through my sound card to my PC speakers as well?

Yes, but not at the same time. You can change the audio output from windows depending on what you are doing.
