VGA Monitor on 1060 6GB?

[justinx01]

Hi community, I have a 1060 6GB card in my current PC and a (old) SAMSUNG VGA LED monitor that I would like to use. Here is a link to the card I have:

Is there some sort of cable/adapter I can use to use the monitor? (The HDMI port is being used by a SAMSUNG 27'' monitor.)

Thanks for any help.

Well pascel cards like the 1060 no longer natively support analog signals like VGA. So you will need an active adapter thaat converts analog to digital, linked one below.

You need a active adapter.

Here is a VGA to Display Port adapter that will work.

Thanks. I think I'll go with the HP one. I used the VGA monitor back in my 2013 PC build before I got the 27'' one. The VGA one I use(d) was just for small things like watching videos, streams, and keeping PC widgets on the side.
