Some of the 8xxx Nvidia cards are also able to include digital audio in the
DVI output. I have a 8400GS that has spdif input and then outputs the video
and audio on the dvi port that is then connected to my TV's HDMI port.

I have no idea about 7xxx and 6xxx Nvidia cards, but I think those are less
interesting from a Myth point of view.
