How to connect two monitors?

[whittywex]

Hi, I have recently purchased another monitor for a dual set up. The graphics card I am using is 'NVIDIA GeForce GT 640' and it only has one VGA port.

Both of my monitors only have the VGA slot so how would I connect my second one?

Cheers

The only way out here is to use a DVI to VGA connector, and use the DVI port on your GT 640 card. So you will have both monitors running.

DVI to VGA converters are pretty cheap. Here's an example:

Which converter is that as there is a few DVI converters, thanks

DVI-I is the most common port used on all GPU's. All the GPU's that i have seen contain DVI-I ports.
So you'll need a DVI-I to VGA converter.
