[SergeantXFX]

Need help guys,I just received my new RX 460 GPU and much to my dismay I cannot connect it to my screen.It only has 1 DVI-D slot and 2 HDMI slots and my LG monitor is VGA.Looking online I cannot seem to find a solution to this =( Am I done for or is there a way to connect my GPU to my monitor?

You will need an active DVI to VGA or active HDMI to VGA converter.

Active DVI-D or HDMI to VGA converters/adapters are fairly common and usually cost under $20. Just make sure it's active most will use a usb port for power.
