This is a DVI-I passive adapter. It allows my CRT monitor to connect to my TItan X graphics card, making it where I don't need an hdmi adapter that is buggier and causes monitor profile issues.If you do not have a CRT monitor and an old graphics card, you are probably looking for a DVI-D adapter.

Updated: September 11, 2020I had planned on taking the guts out of my small ITX case and drilling a hole for a VGA connector, but wanted to try something before I went down that road.

If it is common knowledge that there are different pin ...

With another longer adapter a client's video card got damaged when a cable was accidentally tugged at upward. Since then I've preferred these low profile connectors. S...

I don't know if I got a bad one, or if they all don't work, but I go no signal when using this. I've used many similar adapters without issue, but this one just didn't work. Unfortunately I missed the return window, or this would have gone back.
