Monitors

[puny_santa]

I have 2 LED LG 21.5 IPS MONITOR and I have one connecting with HDMI and the other VGA due to the fact that in the back of my PC there is only 1 HDMI to plug in, is there a way to get an adapter to have 2 HDMI cables go in or with the gtx 1070 does that come ? Just wanna use 2 HDMI rather than 1 of each.

 

Thank you

Or you can use a DVI to HDMI adapter.

I can't see a reason why it wouldn't work. If you have a DVI cable laying around, you can make it a lot easier on yourself and just use that instead of having to use adapters.

The thing is my monitor only has a VGA and HDMI points to plug in, I would have used the DVI cable if I could, maybe I should change the monitors but they are ssoooo expensive

Man, it seems like it's a Korean thing to leave out DVI for whatever reason. Samsung has been doing the same sort of shenanigans with their monitors. Though... they do look similar to LG's monitors... mhm....

Anyways, yea I would stay away from VGA, you're not doing your IPS panels any justice by using an analog signal.
