Hey guys i wanna get this board for a skylake build and was wondering if it would run vga by adapter because i only have a vga monitor right now but i intend on upgrading pretty soon
 
Are you planning to only use the integrated CPU graphics, or do you have or plan to get a discreet graphics card? That's what really determines any limitations. If you plan to use the iGPU, then you're out of luck. I am currently assembling a build with this board and it does not have VGA output, although a displayport to VGA adapter "should" work, if you get a decent adapter. An active adapter would be most likely to work. Many of the passive adapters are trouble prone.
