GTX 1050 ti hdmi to vga adapter - blue tinted screen

Daniel_430 · Feb 15, 2017

I bought a GTX 1050 ti but I still have a monitor with only VGA. I bought an adapter HDMI to VGA but the colors on my monitor are messed up and it is mostly blue. Could this be a bad adapter or something else? I already tried with other vga cable.

Is it an active adapter?

It's like this one. https://www.newit.co.uk/shop/image/cache/data/Products/Raspberry%20Pi/HDMI_VGA_black-500x500.jpg

You need an active on newer cards.

Isn't the same as the picture I found?

It can be, about 600 different vendors use that case. Depends on what is inside.

If it is missing a single color (likely red in your case) then something is wrong with it anyway.

Does yours have external power? If so then yes it's active. Two things can look the same but not quite be the same. If it is an active, then it's bad pins like he's saying.

This is the one I have. http://imgur.com/a/TuLSC.

Does it accept micro USB power or plug into any power at all? If not, it is not active.

Daniel_430 · Feb 15, 2017

I don't think so, it only has the hdmi and vga.

The_Staplergun · Feb 15, 2017

Ok. You'll need an active adapter. Please refer to my earlier link.

Daniel_430 · Feb 15, 2017

Damn. Well thank you all for your answers. Now I now exactly what to look. Then because it is not active, that's the reason why it is messing with the colors?

The_Staplergun · Feb 15, 2017

Newer cards don't support analog connections and require an active conversion. It probably is only getting a tiny bit of the signal over which just comes in to the monitor jumbled.

Daniel_430 · Feb 15, 2017

Well I guess I can only try to change it. Maybe they have the one you shown me. Thank you for your help.

The_Staplergun · Feb 15, 2017

If that doesn't work for you please do come back because it might be something else with the card or monitor.

Daniel_430 · Feb 15, 2017

Ok. I'll do that. But I don't think it's the card since it's new and I saw it working perfectly on another monitor, and my monitor is working as normal.

The_Staplergun · Feb 15, 2017

Alright. Sounds good.

Daniel_430 · Feb 15, 2017

An active adapter from displayport to VGA could work too?

The_Staplergun · Feb 15, 2017

Check to make sure that would even work. If there's an adapter for it and display port can be converted then yes. It wouldn't matter since all of the output is analog which port you use, DVI, HDMI, or Display Port.
