New Graphics Card Advice - HDMI+audio out to TV

Having recently bought a new TV (Panasonic TX-P37X10) I want to link my pc up to it.

All I'm looking for is a card capable of outputing HDMI with audio (I presume). I currently have an X1950 pro running at 1680x1050, so any suggestions that are at least as powerful as that and capable of HDMI + audio would be great. Also any other help/tips on setting this up would be great.

Thanks.

Its a lot easier to use DVI... No graphic card that I know off outputs audio through the HDMI port and I don't know many televisions that allow you to use a different audio input on HDMI (My Sony Bravia doesn't).

So yeh, just get a card that will run at Full HD (I assume thats what you tv is capable off) and then hook it up using DVI (should be a doddle)... then, its a simple case of connected the audio output on your computer to the tv.

Obviously, if you have a sound card with 7.1 and so on, you could make use of it by maybe using optical but this is the basics.

Hope that helps. Ash
