PC case audio sockets can produce HD Audio or only AC-97?


[link to this post]
 
Hi,
My PC case has an audio socket and a microphone socket on the side panel.
I wish to determine whether these sockets are capable of reproducing HD Audio or whether I am limited to AC-97.

There are two separate cables from these sockets having the following identities:

Cable 1....
MIC_PWR
MIC_IN
GND

Cable 2....
R_OUT
R_RETURN (joined to R_OUT)
L_OUT
L_RETURN (joined to L_OUT)
GND

Please can I ask those of you in the know which format these sockets are and can you please direct me to a diagram of the necessary connections?

Many thanks for your time.

HI, they sound like AC'97 connectors.

Thanks mate.

I have just bought an Obsidian 800D together with lots of high spec. hardware recently so no need to worry about AC97 now wink

Will put some pics of the build up on Overclockers for the insane soon.
