How to use this HDMI MALE-DVI-D MALE with my monitor and gpu?

[oze12]

So, i bought a Benq GL2460, its the edition that does not have hdmi connection, it only has DVI-D and vga, my gpu its a gtx 980 pny reference edition, and it does have a dvi connection... But DVI-I, and i just cant seem to find any DVI-I MALE / DVI-D MALE in order to plug the graphics card to the monitor, so i just wanted to know, will a HDMI-MALE / DVI-D MALE cable work? HDMI-Male connected to the graphics card and the DVI-D male connected to the monitor.
Note: The monitor has a DVI-D female connection of 24+1 Pin

This is the monitor :

You can connect a DVI-D cable to your graphics card. DVI-D cables work with DVI-I connectors, the extra pins are pretty much redundant in most cases. So you don't need an adapter, just a regular DVI-D cable.

But , if i wanted to plug the gpu to my tv, will it work? Using that DVI-D Male plug into de gpu and the hdmi to the tv

? Did you link the wrong card? The picture clearly shows no VGA connector and it does show an HDMI port. That cable should work, though if that's your card you can just use a normal HDMI cord.

Yeah, if your TV has HDMI input, you can either use a regular HDMI cable, or use that DVI to HDMI cable. Only HDMI will carry sound as well, but other than that there's no difference...

So why don't you use the HDMI? I'm confused.

Monitor does not have hdmi input, graphics card has a DVI-I connection and hdmi, of course. Point was i wanted to know if a HDMI MALE/DVI-D MALE connection will work when trying to connect the pc to my tv, example, plugging my dvi-d to the gpu and the hdmi connection to the tv.

DVI-I is DVI-D. Just use a DVI cable. I means it's Integrated, meaning it has Analog and Digital together. DVI-A exists but is nearly unheard of in the wild. A standard DVI cable should work.
