Yes, the card will output sound over HDMI. If you look at the link, you can see the card will cost you $30 up front (not an amazing price, but an alright one). When you actually get the card, you cut the UPC from the box, print a copy of the invoice and a rebate form (available on newegg's site). You mail all this off to Powercolor and in 8-12 weeks you'll get a check for $20 in the mail.
