I want to upgrade my graphics card
Currently gtx 960
Wanting gtx 1060

Problem: I have a benqxl2411z and I can't find any gtx 1060 with a dvi i because that's what my monitor uses to use the 144hz help?
 
Solution
You can use DVI-D with DVI-I ports. DVI-I has analog support as well as digital, DVI-D is just digital.

DVI-I is the same as DVI-D just with the 4 pins on the left. You don't need those 4 pins with DVI-I only for analog. A DVI-D cable will plug into that DVI-I port and work normally.
