Default 4pin 4850 to mobo spdif cable - where to get?

My Asus P5Q3 mobo manual talks of a 4pin cable that connects a mobo
spdif connector to a 4pin connector on an Asus graphics card. This
supposedly lets the audio be handled on the, for example, 4850 card
and then out thru its HDMI connection.

Does anyone know where to get this 4pin cable?

You shouldn't have to do that. My Diamond 4870 is seen as another audio
device in Vista so all I should have to do is connect an HDMI cable from
the 4870 to a receiver that has HDMI 1.3 and select it in Vista as the
audio device and should get audio over that cable. My receiver doesn't have
HDMI 1.3 though so it is useless to me.
