I was wondering if all the 7 series support HDMI... I have a 7900GTO 512 that I'd like to use for DVI to HDMI, but I'm not sure if it supports it. Since this was a limited and discontinued product, it's hard to find specs.

Im assuming you meant "HDCP"..If so read the above post.If you meant"HDMI"the 9800GX2 is the first NV card to have that connector..I think..

Actually, the more I think about the OP's question. He just asked about DVI -> HDMI. His 7900GTO will support DVI -> HDMI adapters.

Actually any videocard, all the way back to GeForce 2, radeon 7000/7500 era, or whenever DVI was first introduced, will support DVI -> HDMI adapters. HDMI uses the same TMDS transmitters as DVI just in a different connector.

The only new thing is, will the videocard support the HDCP protocol that some HD content requires. I don't think there is any currently on the market that requires it though? correct. That requirement has been waived for awhile. Either way, see my previous post about HDCP support for your 7900GTO.
