Hey guys, I plan on getting a new speaker system for my PC but I'm not sure how I would transfer audio to it, I've been doing some research and it turns out that I need at least an HDMI ARC feature that would allow me to do so. I'm not sure if my motherboard has that feature as I couldn't find anything online but if you guys could help me in any way regarding my motherboard HDMI ports that would be amazing. Thanks in advance!

Solution
your hdmi port will not work with your CPU,
HDMI ARC feature is not implemented for PCs, its for home entertainment systems (things like DVD player, game consoles, TVs, AVR...etc) that port is labeled as HDMI ARC if present
you can still use optical tosslink or bluetooth to send audio to that sound system from PC
