[SOLVED] What ports are these? (image attached)

[shobuddy]

Just got a computer from a friend and thought the ports circled in red in the attached image were HDMI but they're not. What are they? I purchased two monitors thinking these were HDMI ports.

DisplayPort.

DisplayPort.

Thanks for the response. So in order to use two monitors with this computer, I need two DP cables or a DP cable and a DVI cable, right?

Edit: Monitors only have HDMI, DVI & VGA so I need two DP to HDMI adapters?

It looks like the two on the motherboard are both DP and the two on the video card are DVI and DP. So, if you want to use the video card, one DP to HDMI and one DVI.

Video card will most likely be somewhat better than the motherboard, if the motherboard even works (cpu depending) so use a DVI-DVI to 1 monitor (most likely this'll be the primary monitor according to gpu) and use DP-HDMI for the other monitor. Both from the gpu. Just remember to also set the inputs on the monitors themselves according to which input is used, one will be dvi, the other hdmi. Whichever you set in windows as primary may or may not be what the gpu sets as primary, so it's not uncommon for bios to show on the secondary monitor but windows be on the primary you set.

Thanks guys! I had forgotten about GPU vs MB video. You've answered my questions
