Can a HDMI to DUAL LINK DVI-I adapter (comes with the 4890) be used from the vidcards DVI out using a SINGLE LINK DVI-D cable with the HDMI to DUAL LINK DVI-I adapter at the end of the cable hooking up to a TV's HDMI input. Im guess it can but i wont get the sound when going from Vid Cards DVI to the Tv's HDMI

If your using the video card for the audio, it will pass through, if your using a soundcard or onboard mobo audio, you can sometimes pass it through the video card if it has a SPDIF input, otherwise you'll have to hope the TV has audio inputs associated with one the the HDMI inputs.

So if i disable the onboard sound it should pass through the DVI on the vid card? I thought the sound would onlt travel through the HDMI out on the vid card? and the SINGLE LINK DVI-D cable will carry sound?

The one on Joseph Howe seems more like a mall than a grocery store so I would think that would be your best bet. ;)
