discussion Question about using HDMI and 3.5mm Audio Jack on Mobo

[Izerous]

I never use the audio from the HDMI because all my pc's are hooked to TV's and I don't want to use the TV speakers, so I used to do HDMI for video and 3.5mm jack for audio, over the last few years I have switched to Spdif to soundbars. I know all the audio people hate me but it works just fine for my use case.

SPDIF from the TV or from the computers? The SPDIF audio outputs on TVs were basically designed for that purpose so you can still send the audio over HDMI and have the TV forward it to a soundbar or similar.
