Sound cards are only needed to do the digital to analog conversion on the PC. However, that's not the only place this conversion can occur.
If you are using HDMI, there's no conversion. It sends the digital data stream including audio and video to your TV or processor, and the digital to analog conversion happens there.
You would connect your Nvidia directly to your Mcintosh processor. I notice you only have 1 HDMI port there. If your motherboard supports HDMI output you may be able to use it too if you need 1 for your monitor and 1 for your TV.
