hi ive got my TV connected to my PC through my gtx 780 so that i can watch films on the big screen everything is working fine apart from the sound is only coming out of the TV and not my amp and speakers that ive got connected to the PC

so my question is can i have the sound coming out of both devices? if not can i ditch the sound coming from the TV in favor of my amp and speakers?

Right click on the desktop and select Nvidia control panel.
Clcik on "set up multi displays". Right click the screen in No.2 and select "clone source", which is your monitor.

On AMD there is a scaling option, Nvidia will probably have one too so look around in the Nvidia control panel thing for one

TVs can be a pain to get full screen. Have a look into the overscan settings on your driver, and you may need to look at your TV settings too to get it to switch off any scaling it does.
