Exclamation All in Wonder 9800 for use with a VGA monitor???

Hi! I'm in the market for an All in Wonder 9800. But, as I was comparing specs, I noticed the card doesn't have a VGA output. This is something I need until I can afford to buy a flat screen. Is it possible to use this card with DVI outputs for conventional VGA monitors? Thanks!

Sure, you'll just need an adapter.

Usually the video card comes with the needed adapters. Check the website to make sure.

... and if not, they are only a few bucks at virtually any electronics store. I just bought 4 of them for work.

Excellent responses! Thank you all! I wasn't sure if you can plug an adapter on it or not. Now I know. I didn't see if one came in the box or not, but if ya can buy one cheap... chute...

ThanX again!

Yeip, the ATI's do come with the adapter. Don't know about other brands, though. One easy way to find out is go to Newegg, find the model / brand, and then look at the photo layout for that card.
