All GeForce 7950GX2 and 7950 GT cards
http://www.nvidia.com/page/geforce_7950.html

NOTES: All reference design 7950GX2 and 7950GT cards are required to be HDCP enabled.

Select GeForce 7900GS cards:
Leadtek WinFast PX7900GS TDH and TDH Extreme
eVGA 7900 GS KO 256MB (256-P2-N625-AR)http://www.evga.com/products/moreinf...256-P2-N625-AR
eVGA 7900 GS 256MB (256-P2-N623-AR)
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/produc...il.php?UID=746

NOTES: Unlike the 7950 series, HDCP is optional in the new 7900GS. Take special note of the model numbers for the eVGA cards, there are otherwise identical models without HDCP support.

MSI NX7600GT-VT2D256E-HD
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/produc...il.php?UID=745
MSI NX7900GT-VT2D256E-HD
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/produc...il.php?UID=746

NOTES: Notice the "HD" at the end of the MSI models, the retail box has an "HDCP Ready" sticker on it. These MSI cards have HDCP enabled DVI ports. The 7600GT uses a large fan and duct system much like the NV Silencer Arctic Cooling aftermarket video card coolers, making it a decent option for HTPC use.

Sapphire X1600 Pro HDMI (model# 100167L)http://www.sapphiretech.com/us/produ...w.php?gpid=145

NOTES: Sapphire is the first vendor to release a card based on the new Radeon X1600 Pro low-profile HDMI reference design. This offers S/PDIF passthrough, that feeds your sound card's coax S/PDIF into the HDMI connector to take advantage of the ability to send both audio and video over the HDMI cable.

ASUS EN7600GT/HTDI/256MB - A pretty typical (ie: has the stock fan) 7600GT card except it has an HDMI port and the S/PDIF input for passthrough down the HDMI cable much like Radeon X1600 Pro cards listed above.

MSI NX7600GT Diamond Plus - MSI's HDMI enabled 7600GT, appears to be similar to the ASUS model above, but uses MSI's longer PCB size.

Coming soon

PowerColor X1600 PRO HDMI
ASUS EAX1600PRO/I/256MB
http://www.asus.com/products4.aspx?l...75&modelmenu=1

NOTES: Both of these follow the same low-profile reference design as the Sapphire above.

GeCube has a line up of X1300 and X1600 HDCP enabled and HDMI enabled cards:
http://www.gecube.com/products-02.php?prod_cat_pid=152
Two are typical reference design X1300/X1600 but with HDCP keys and two are the low-profile HDMI style.

ASUS EAX1900XT/HTVDP/256M - Expensive Radeon X1900XT with HDCP support from ASUS.
http://www.asus.com.tw/products4.asp...36&modelmenu=1

Gigabyte GV-NX76G256HI-RH - Gigabyte finally uses their SilentPipe II passive technology on an updated 7600GS with HDMI support. Since it is a 7600GS and not a GT you loose advanced 1080i video processing, making this card less attractive for a new system.
