So i'm looking into buying a new reciever (an Onkyo TX-SR608) and want to output HD audio through my 460's HDMI port now all formats are supported in the latest drivers.

Unfortunately when i select the HDMI audio i only see the following.



Now i'm assuming the reason i only see stereo available is because i have the hdmi connected to my TV (which is only stereo) and that if i connect the new reciever i will be able to select 7.1.

I dont want to buy the reciever until i know wether i am right or not. Because if i'm wrong then i'm stuck with an awesome reciever i can't use properly and might as well stick with my old one.

Can anyone confirm this?
 
I run my gtx460 thru hdmi to my pioneer receiver. Outputs to a 5.1 surround setup and LCD TV. As long as the receiver has hdmi, it should be gtg.
