S/PIDF Passthrough Cable

[McGrace]

New build listed below...

The MSI vid card did not come with a good S/PIDF passthrough cable for audio and HDMI isn't sending audio through it to the TV. Where can you buy them I can't find them anywhere?

(The connector to the motherboard simply is the wrong connector... )

Thanks!

can you post a pic of the connector on the mobo and the connector on the wire?

it might be possible to make it work.

The pin on the mobo is what I saw a hundred times as a standard three pin audio.

The HDMI cable pictured in this review - http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.p...ask=view&id=87&Itemid=72&limit=1&limitstart=3 - Would probably do it. My current cable has the right hand side attached to the vid card. The cable's mobo side is sort of a three wire version of that, but it's hard to make out.

This should show a connector that would actually work going into my mobo:
Check the 5th and 7th Pics from top. Should show connector that would work in the mobo
