Hi,
I have just upgraded my PC to an i7-4790k using Gigabyte's Gaming 5 motherboard with a GTX 970 card. Very happy apart from one thing - the HDMI out from the 970 to my Sony AVAMP receiver is only 2 channel audio. Why is this?
In my old system using an i7-2600k and many different upgrades of GTX graphics cards, I have never had this issue and they have all instantly recognised the supported frequencies and codecs for my AV receiver. I have even tried turning the on-board graphics off and on from the BIOS.
I am utterly miffed about this and have spent all day updating the BIOS and drivers and trawling the internet for anyone with a similar issue, but nothing. I did have an issue just getting a signal to the AVR but that miraculously resolved itself.
Is there a chance that this is a faulty card or am I missing something obvious?
Thanks for your responses in advance!
