I am buying a new desktop: Dell Studio XPS 8100
This comes with the 512MB NVIDIA G310 Graphics card.
IT looks like the graphics card has a DVI port and a VGA port.
I need to connect two monitors to this machine. Dell helpdesk is telling me that I need to buy an adapter but did not tell me what kind.
Can someone please tell me how to connect two monitors to this machine?
Since the card has both DVI and VGA, can I not use a VGA cable to connect monitor 1 and a DVI cable to connect monitor 2.
Do I really need some adapter?
Thanks a lot.
Jay
