    Hello, I have a question or such a converter
    HDMI to VGA Converter: Compatibility with Old Monitor & GTX 1050 Graphics Card
    will work for me when I connect from this converter HDMI to the graphics card, and VGA to the cable from the old monitor?
    I was looking on the Internet, but all such converters connect the PS3 to the monitor or Image from laptop to the monitor.

    So I repeat the question: Will the converter I sent above work for me with an old monitor with 1 VGA input and a new GTX 1050 graphics card with HDMI input ??

    If it works like this, I see no difference why it should not work with a computer.

    ps. You can buy it online and you always have the option of returning without giving a reason within 14 days. (Only the shipping price kills the return's profitability)

    And if only because it is a reverse conversion

    Will it send a signal from the old monitor to the hdmi in the graphics card?

    Quote from the first better auction:
    Quote:
    The cable allows you to connect a monitor or projector with a VGA connector
    to any device equipped with an HDMI connector, e.g. a smartphone, tablet, laptop, computer, console!

    I don't know anymore. I have a graphics card with dvi, displayport and hdmi inputs and an old monitor with vga input. Will it work if I buy a converter?

    Added after 1 [minutes]:

    The image probably goes from the graphics card is HDMI to VGA unless I understand it correctly?

    The title clearly says "VGA to HDMI converter" - this will not work.
    The HDMI to VGA converter will work


    I changed, I will give an answer soon (in a few days, because I can't now) whether it actually worked :)

    With exits, I think.

    Such a converter should work.

    With output - and if it is DVI-I there is no need for converters, the VGA signal is included in this protocol.

    Maybe take a photo of this card's ports and put it here.

    You only need this adapter: HDMI to VGA Converter: Compatibility with Old Monitor & GTX 1050 Graphics Card
