The garbage

It's fine. A DVI to analog adapter only uses a small subset of pins.

>its a dvi-d d-sub
Nope. It should be fine, because it's just the analog part of the connector. You'd use this to hook up to an analog monitor, like a CRT or older LCD.

I still use analog (VGA) because I have a KVM that uses it.

so i dont plug that into a gpu? and the vga cable into that with the monitor?

>>62022793

Yeah that's practically a VGA cable. (DVI-A)

while this is true, USUALLY they have more pins than that.

Those extra pins are probably for alignment only. There are no analog-related alternate functions on them.

>>62022892
extra pins are for strength of connection, analog uses very small subset of pins

This is a better picture

His has the analog pins and the plug and play pins, nothing else.
