DVI Question

[leon0098]

Can you use an adapter for a VGA monitor on a DVI video card (eVGA 256-P2-N516 Geforce 7800GT CO SE 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 VIVO PCI Express x16 Video Card)

yeah you'll need a DVI to VGA connector, but they're not cheap. Saw one in CompUSA for $35.00 you can probably do better than that on the net.


here's one for $10...

as a note, check what the video card comes with. most retail card have adaptors that come in so you dont have to shell out $35 for it. as a note, dont buy it from compusa anyways, there's plenty of places that sell it for cheaper. hell try ebay, alot of people are probably trying to get rid of theirs 😉
