nvidia graphics card t-383???

I have a Dell precision 390 that was a work station that has this nvidia t-383 video card in it & I'm not sure what kind of monitor it was connected to, but I do know it won't connect to a standard LCD monitor. The plug on it is a female plug with 64 pins in it. the card itself is plugged into a PCI-e x16 socket on the motherboard. I just want to know if there is a way to adapt this card to work with a regular LCD flat screen monitor? I have attached pictures of this card if it might help somebody to address my issue. any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need a special adapter to go from that DMS-59 video port to DVI or VGA.

Unfortunately, most suppliers don't carry them, but since dell still produces PCs with the DMS-59 port, they carry the adapters.

Here is an adapter that goes to two DVI connectors:

One that goes to both DVI and VGA:

And one that goes to two VGA connectors:

I would recommend the first adapter with the two DVI connectors.
