to the graphics card and have digital audio output from the HDMI display at the same time. For information
about connecting the S/PDIF digital audio cable, carefully read the manual for your expansion card.
10) SPDIF_IN (S/PDIF In Header)
This header supports digital S/PDIF In and can connect to an audio device that supports digital audio out via
an optional S/PDIF In cable. For purchasing the optional S/PDIF In cable, please contact the local dealer.
