I'm thinking about buying a eVGA 7800GT video card, now that has 2 DV-I outputs and no standard VGA output. At the minute I don't have a flat panel.

So will a normal CRT monitor work as a primary monitor on these cards with an adapter?

Is so, is there an adapter supplied in the retail box? Or would I have to buy one seperately? I couldn't pin down that information on the eVGA site :-(

Thanks

Rich

Yeah, what he said

Just a note, try to get the adapter as securely connected as you can, if it jiggles around it does weird things (turns display pink/yellow/blue/etc etc etc)
But yeah, it'll work just fine, and the drivers will detect it as an analog device
