    Ok, so I finally got my computer together and all seems to be working well except for the audio. The first problem is that it doesn't seem to play through the t.v. I'm using as a monitor (connected through an hdmi cable) It does play through the headphone jacks however, and presumably would play through speakers if I hooked them up. The sound seems somewhat weak though even when it is on 100%.

    Thanks to all those that helped me pick the parts out by the way.

    Are you sure you're using a HDMI cable or is it a DVI to HDMI? Because I'm fairly sure DVI is video only. If so, you're gonna need to hook up your sound system straight to your computer.

    EDIT: What components did you go with btw?

    Nvidia HDMI does not carry audio.

    Huh, that's odd. Misleading case, but thanks.
