I believe that that would require an active adapter as DVI-D is a digital signal while VGA is Analog, now if it were DVI-I to VGA that would be a whole different story as DVI-I carries both a Digital and Analog signal, meaning no active adapter would be required.

If you only have a VGA monitor and your GPU only has DVI (it would be DVI-I, not DVI-D, btw), there's not really anything else you can do but buy a DVI-I to VGA adapter..

 

Since VGA is a very old standard nowadays it would be preferable to have a more modern connector, but it will work fine if you need it to..

i7 not perfectly stable at 4.4.. #firstworldproblems
