My dad is putting together a new computer and he has bought a Nvidia Geforce FX 5200. Now my question is, aren't they suppose to have a Digital video along with the standard VGA and S-Video.
His doesn't have one and I am a little confussed.

Boom is right, the options on the card really depend on the manufacturer.

Zoë: Shepard, isn't the Bible kind of specific about killing?
Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.

DVI to VGA connector should have come with the card.

that just it it does not have the DVI port.
That was my question is it supose to have that port or not?
I called COMPUSA and the first guy had the nerve to say I don't know try calling the tech Support # on the box so I asked a second guy and he wasn't sure either:ak47:

So...
Wat does the box itself say?  Not all cards have them, but if the box says it should, then maybe they gave you the wrong model?
