My GPU has a DVI-I and a DVI-D port. The moniter I have uses VGA and the DVI-I port is already in use. If you know which converter I need to use, please provide a link to a website i can buy it from, Thanks

A passive DVI-to-VGA adapter simply maps the analog, sync and EDID signals from the DVI-I port pins to VGA pins. A DVI-D port lacks the analog signals altogether (the connector may even be missing the analog signal holes, making the plugs mechanically incompatible) and cannot work with a passive adapter.

No. That one is passive and will not work on DVI-D. The title is wrong
