Specs unimportant. Cheapness is.

7/20/2009 12:49:00 PM

i could use one of these too

Right now all the ones I'm finding have that weird connection. I looked it up a few months ago, but the actual type of connection escapes me at the moment.

7/20/2009 3:42:41 PM

jeebus it took forever to find the connection type I was talking about....I was starting to feel really retarded. anyways its a dms-59 connection. does anybody have any use for this? (lol)

That's what I'm replacing actually. I have a couple of Dells with an AGP and a PCI-E nvidia video cards, both with nothing but that connector. I'll probably end up trashing them as I don't have any monitors to use them with.

You have to have an adapter to convert that to DVI or VGA, right? I've never seen a monitor that uses DMS-59, but maybe I'm behind the times.

Edit:
You need this adapter. It's two DVI connections in one to save space.

strange concept, but it makes sense and I can now see the usefulness in such a thing
