DVI-D to VGA adapter

[mitrasto]

@mitrasto:

Also I have been reading that this type of adapters fail is it true?
I am also considering the idea of a HDMI to VGA adapter, what do you think?
I have been looking at this adapter: APPC11

Thank you very much for your trouble.

What do you want the adapter for, to connect it to a monitor that only has a VGA input, right?
The HDMI thing would be justified if:

• You already have the DVI output occupied and you want to connect another monitor.
• The monitor in question supports very high resolutions.

What do you want the audio for?
Don't complicate your life, keep it simple.

Edit: You can also find the adapter in specialized electronics stores, and it rarely goes over 3 €.

Is it that the graphics cards no longer come with it?

[mitrasto]

The thing is, I have a GTX 750 Ti and only one VGA output and I have two monitors, and I would like to install the main one with DVI-D and the other directly to VGA. I wouldn't mind connecting VGA to HDMI to have better quality. I read that this type of DVI-D to VGA adapters fail a lot and don't have good performance, what do you advise? Have you used this adapter?

Don't worry about the quality if it's all digital DVI or HDMI, and with resolutions of more than 1080. In your case, what marks the quality is not the adapter itself, but the piece of VGA cable.
By the technology used, I mean, I don't know if I'm explaining myself.

In any computer store they should have it, but if not the usual Chinese one :troll:

And when you see a DVI - VGA converter like the one in the photo, but it lacks half of the pins, do not worry because it does not need them to convert to VGA.

In my case, I have experienced the opposite case of a motherboard DVI output, which I could not use to put a monitor with VGA, because it did not have enough holes for any of the versions of cut pins :facepalm:

Salu2!

Hello good afternoon
Thank you for all your comments, this afternoon I will go for a walk to see if I find the adapter.
The other day I was offered the DVI-D to VGA but the Single Link but it seems to me a bit strange connection, what do you think?

The adapter that used to be included in the box of the first graphics cards with dual DVI is the one that appears as DVI-A in the image you provide.

Regards!

What I don't understand is what you said to me, that it doesn't matter if you have fewer pins? Why do you say that?

Why, to get the signal only in analog, they are not used, that simple.
