For ATI graphic card starting from HD2000 (in 2007) there is already 5.1
surround built-in. The DVI port also carry audio signal, I have a HD3450
with DVI to HDMI adapter and HDMI cable connected to my TV. I believe Nvidia
also has HDMI audio around the same time. I also heard that ATI and Nvidia
may require different DVI to HDMI adapter, they usually came with the
display card.
