So, I recently saw in my sound options next to my headphones/speakers that I also have "Nvidia HD audio" but I'm honestly not sure how to plug into it, or even if that's an option. I consider myself pretty tech savvy, but I'm not sure what this is.. Does it enhance my existing headphones/speakers or do I need to plug into it, if so, I don't see a port for headphones on the graphics card slot.

I'd hate to think I was using a lower quality sound output for my music. Let me know, thanks!

HD Audio is used via a HDMI lead when connected to a TV or other multimedia device. It sends the sound via the HDMI lead to the TV instead of the default speakers or headphones
It doesn't work on normal speakers or headphones and doesn't give any better quality sound than speakers or headphones plugged into the normal sockets
