If I remember correctly, I used DVI to HDMI cable (AmazonBasics HDMI to DVI Adapter Cable). Your 9600GT should come with the (2-Pin/2-Pin SPDIF Audio Cable), and it is known as SPDIF header. It have been a long time since I installed it. If you check your manual, it should have an instruction to install SPDIF header cable. If you install it right, you'll have both audio/video over DVI to HDMI cable. It'll be easier to make it work with XBMC, because it'll work the same way as HDMI to HDMI cable. Since it is SPDIF over DVI to HDMI, you're limited to SPDIF capability!
Blueray, I decided to order GT430 and remove 9609GT+Xonar. Will know by next week when card will arrive.
Thank you for making me spend some money for upgrade :-)
