Hello guys
I have bought a new GTX 1050 Ti and it has some ports like HDMI and etc but it has no RGB port and my monitor has RGB only. I wanted to know if it is possible to use my integrated gpu and it's RGB port to have windows display and use the Nvidia to play games or I should buy one of these HDMI to RGB converters and connect monitor to Nvidia?

My MOBO
GTX 1050 Ti

Thanks

You will lose some quality when using a converter, but I don't believe there is any other way around it unless you get a monitor that supports one of the digital outputs of your GPU.

As for gaming on laptops that use integrated graphics, some games will run on integrated graphics but a lot won't. You can use an eGPU if you feel the need and have the time, effort, and money to get it up and running. See https://www.howtogeek.com/232144/what-is-an-egpu-and-why-should-i-want-one/

You won't be able to use your 1050 Ti to play games unless your display is plugged in to it.

By RGB do you mean VGA? I've never seen a monitor with RGB only. If it's VGA you should buy an HDMI to VGA converter like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OFQUDR0/ref=asc_df_B00OFQUDR05046787/?tag=hyprod-20&creative=395009&creativeASIN=B00OFQUDR0&linkCode=df0&hvadid=198063088238&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4984571825456846730&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9025744&hvtargid=pla-318768076279

Hey Ancient
At first thanks for the time and effort you spent on replying.
By RGB I meant the same VGA. I just wanted to know can I fix it without converters or not and do the reduce the quality ?
And another thing is that how laptops works is similar to what I want to do I mean they all have display on their igpu and games are run on Nvidia or AMD graphics any solution for such thing in PC ?
