Dual monitors

[TheQuadSquad]

Alright, so i'm going to cut to the chase. I have a computer with a GTX 970 with one dvi output, which i'm currently using on my one monitor. I was going to go for dual monitors and was wondering if there was any other way to use dual DVI monitors with only one DVI output on my graphics card. I was also wondering if I bought another GTX 970 for SLI, if i'd just be able to use the DVI on that graphics card for the second monitor. I realize this is probably one of the dumbest questions anyone has ever asked on this website, but i'd very much appreciate an answer. Thanks!

if you have your cards in sli both displays need to connect to the first card.

 

and heres the cable for that, dvi to display port

I dont think there are any reliable options.

I was brought down becouse of the same reason when o bought the gtx 660.

Just buy an HDMI-DVI/Displayport-DVI adaptor/cable, they're not really that expensive.

They are not cables, They are adapters, They get a digital signal and make it into a analog signal.

They are not very reliable, They often have a pretty high ms response.

EDIT: Thought VGA, Sorry.

If you have DVI, you should have HDMI too, right ? You can have 1DVI and 1HDMI so you can use your dual monitor.

May be can try this if you have 2 DVI outputs on your GPU, then use DVI to VGA adapters for two of your monitors. Then plug the DVI monitor into your HDMI port with a DVI to HDMI adapter which may work.
