so i have a monitor that supports vga / dvi only and a gpu that supports hdmi / dvi only
i bought a hdmi-vga adaptor connecting my monitor -> vga cable -> adaptor -> hdmi port on my computer, nothing registers.
so the question is, only a div cable would work in this case right?
Why not just buying a dvi cable?
>converting digital to analog is a good idea even though I could just use digital
Why in fucks name would you use HDMI to VGA when you have DVI? Waste of money on a converter, go out and buy a DVI cable.
