Can i connect a DVI-I cable to a DVI-D monitor input?

DarkDubzs · Dec 27, 2013

My old 720p Dell monitor from like 6 years ago is finally giving out, the display is still in perfect condition, but it is making a burning plastic smell and i would rather have my house not burn down because of it. I really like this monitor from Microcenter for only $100, its 1080p and is a 16:9 ratio 1920 x 1080

As you can see in the AOC link, it says it has a DVI-D port (and a VGA port), and i know that dvi-d carries only a digital image signal and a dvi-i carries analog and digital, but in this picture it looks like a DVI-I port because of the extra 4 slots on the very right of the port around the horizontal slot. So i am worried if i get a dvi cable, it will be a dvi-i cable and will not fit into the dvi-d port; or vice versa if thats possible. Can this problem even be existent? like do they even make dvi-i cables or just dvi-d cables?

Any help to my problem will be very much appreciated. Thanks! Happy (soon) New Years all!

Forgot to mention i have an EVGA Geforce GTX 660 SC gpu which has dvi-d and dvi-i ports, in case you cant see it in my sig

Yes, you are fine. And sometimes the spec writers don't always get it quite right. I have a similar AOC monitor on my 2nd PC; 27". Very nice.

It obviously is a DVI-I port. As long as you use the DVI-I port on the card, you should be OK. But can't you find a DVI-D cable? They're the most common.

Yes, they make DVI-I and DVI-D cables. Yes, you can plug a DVI-D cable into a DVI-I slot ( I have that right now). You just can't plug a DVI-I cable into a DVI-D slot. The four extra pins would get crushed

Dom_79 :

Dont you mean it the other way? A DVI-I male cable cannot fit into a DVI-D female port because the four male pins on the cable would be crushed by the female DVI-D port not having the extra four pin input ports.

This is getting confusing with all the DVI's flying around lol

Whoa wtf, in the Microcenter pic of the back of the monitor it shows a DVI-D port
http://www.microcenter.com/product/408370/e2252Swdn_22_LED_Monitor

But in the AOC website picture it shows a DVI-I port

http://us.aoc.com/cms/aoc/products_photos/1d8df29043464fd237a3189fca4e712b_large.png

WTF. I guess when i get it in store ill find out what port it really has, but those cross conflicting pictures are really throwing me off

Dom_79 · Dec 28, 2013

When you get there, show them those links and ask to open the box BEFORE you purchase it so you know what you're getting. Might just be a mistake on the store or the manufacturer's sites. I recently read a thread where a guy made a mistake and got DVI-I and DVI-D mixed up and backwards

DarkDubzs · Dec 28, 2013

Will do, dont wanna get home only to flip sh*t when i realize the port is different.

DVI-D cables are cheap: http://www.amazon.com/Monitor-Cable-Brand-Original-DVI-M/dp/B0041BT21M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1388255674&sr=8-1&keywords=dvi+cables

Buy one and your concerns are over.

I buy DVI to VGA converter online, seller send me with DVI-I (male), i have female DVI-D on xfx R9-290 graphic card.
sure it will crushed if i fit it DVI-I male into DVI-D female port.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Is its work if i cut all extra 4 pins on DVI-I(Male) and enter it in to female DVI-D

clutchc · Jan 31, 2014

If I understand you correctly, you are trying to use a DVI to VGA adapter on a DVI-D port. That won't work. The adapter has to be plugged into a DVI-I port on the card. There's no analog (VGA) signal at the DVI-D port.
DVI-D = digital
DVI-I = integrated (both digital and analog)

Then you are plugged into the DVI-I port on the card, not the DVI-D port.

clutchc · Feb 5, 2014

If your monitor doesn't have HDMI input, no that won't work.

If this is your monitor: http://mlc-s1-p.mlstatic.com/monitor-lg-studioworks-700e-usado-15000-10830-MLC20034823799_012014-O.jpg ...and all it has is the DE-15 port/cable: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/29/Male_VGA_connector.jpg
...then there's no way to get an analog (VGA) signal from the HDMI port on the gfx card.

You need to plug into the DVI-I port to use the 4 analog (VGA) pins that port has: http://i.stack.imgur.com/6K4tr.png

yes that is my current monitor
:-(
look like i need to buy new led monitor
but xfx R9 290enfc have only (DVI-D (fe-mail port only)

so ??? is their any way to run this card on that monitor

clutchc · Feb 5, 2014

Punga Pandit :

Ahh! I see your problem. Apparently, card manufacturers are finally doing away with legacy support like analog VGA. No, that card (and most other R9-290s) no longer produce an analog display. A new monitor or different card is the only answer. They do make HDMI (digital) to VGA (analog) converters, but they are almost as expensive as a new digital monitor, and I have never used one to vouch for their capability.

how can it work ,HDMI to VGA??

clutchc · Feb 13, 2014

First I've ever seen of that style HDMI/VGA converter. Most are quite a bit more complex and expensive. The one in your link I would have reservations about. Conversion from digital to analog requires a device called a D/A converter ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital-to-analog_converter ). It would require power. There is no power at the HDMI port, just signal. Buy the above device at your own risk.

Can i connect a DVI-I cable to a DVI-D monitor input?
