[SOLVED] Help - Connecting RX 570 to "VGA only" Samsung monitor.

[tar3k10]

So i just got an RX 570, it has DVI-D, Display Port and HDMI Port.
And my old Samsung monitor only has VGA.

At first i got this DVI-D to VGA converter

It didn't work at all not even one.
Then i got a Display port to VGA

At first it worked for a day (Screen flickering to black now and then), then it went dead and no display as well.

What type of converter should i get to work fine? (Aside from getting a new monitor, no budget for a decent one ATM)

The white adapter in the image is a DVI-I adapter.

It will not work.

You need an HDMI / DP to VGA adapter.

1-I believe that's DVI-D (Single Link) but yea the one i have is dual link, so I'll just update the picture.
2- I tried both and didn't work, i believe i need a specific type to work then but i'm not sure which.

Would this work?

That's perfect.

I have been using the same adapter for more than 2 years and i have had no problem.

In fact, this is the best HDMI to VGA adapter you can buy.

You get what you pay for.

Yeah, i'm talking about the link you posted.

i.e. the HP HDMI to VGA Adapter

I have the same adapter and it works just fine.
