DVI

OFF TOPIC: I suggest every poll from now on to have "**CK EA" option instead of "Other"

Dual DVI port. Common in Dell tower sold to enterprises. Basically you buy an adapter that is just looks like a splitter but is actually two DVI ports. Since 99% of our towers at work have it it makes it convenient for us when swapping towers.

Okay, thanks for the info. What specifically would I buy to get this hooked in a monitor?

They are relatively cheap as you can get both DVI and VGA adapters for 16 bucks

Any cable to have it work with an hdmi monitor by chance?

So far I have been able to get it to work with adapters (DVI,VGA,DP) but havent tried HDMI. If you can pick up a cheap HDMI adapter it should work. But it has no sound pins so you wont get sound.

I just did this last weekend. The "Y" DVI splitter cable to a DVI->HDMI cable I got off ebay for $4. I used it to OC/benchmark the old HD 3450 while I was waiting for a new graphics card. Works fine.

 

This is what I used from what I am calling the "y" cable: http://www.ebay.com/itm/6Ft-HDMI-to-DVI-D-24-1-Pin-Monitor-Display-Adapter-Cable-Male-Male-Gold-HD-HDTV-/391008505323?hash=item5b09ec4deb:g:dnEAAOSwstxVbjhE

 

I already had the "Y" cable so not sure how to help you with that.
