I'm fairly certain doing this will bypass your fancy new graphics card and use the onboard video instead, but that card has both DVI and mini HDMI out, which is essentially the same thing, just without carrying the audio signal.

Fortunately, you can get cables like this for cheap.

Edit: Just to clarify, if you go the DVI to HDMI route you will not get an audio signal. I'm unsure if the video card can pass the signal somehow if you go mini HDMI to HDMI. In any case, it's usually not the case that passing an audio signal to a computer monitor is desired.
