Question about new video card from MSI - R7750-PMD1GD5/OC

Hello Folks,
I am afraid I can't find an answer to this anywhere, so I have had to post, even though I bet that somewhere, someone has asked this question before !!!!
I changed by Base Unit PC but kept my old monitors because I like them. I run two Acer AL1917's in extended mode.
Well, thats the problem, I did with the old PC which had a graphics card with two DVI outputs and it was easy to do by using two DVI to VGA converters.
However, the new PC has in it an MSI R7750-PMD1GD5/OC which has only one DVI, one HDMI and one Display Port.
Now, I know what the DVI and HDMI Ports are but have no idea what the Display port is!
THE MAIN PROBLEM IS I CAN'T FIND A WAY TO RUN TWO VGA MONITORS IN EXTENDED MODE with these three outputs?
The monitors are VGA ONLY, so is there any way I can use this display card at all to run two vga monitors in extended mode or should I just eBay it !!!
At the moment I have swapped it out for an old Nvidia GeForce GTS 450 which works fine with two DVI's. But I was rather hoping to be able to use my new MSI card.
Is there any way I can do this please?
Many thanks for any help that anyone is able to give.
With best wishes to all for the New Year Ahead,
Trevor

2 x Acer AL1917 19" Monitors. VGA connections only !!!

Thank you very much.
On order as we speak. !!!! 
All this just for those extra few miles of visibility in MS Flight Simulator X 
The only two games I ever play when I have time, probably Easter now, are the aforementioned MSFS and X-Plane !!!!
Very Sad LOL !!!
Still, we shall see. I didn't know it was as simple as a cable because I always thought vga is anologue and HDMI is Digital, n'er the twain shall mix without a converter LOL 
Never mind, I love being proved wrong because it means I have learnt something more in this wonderful life 
Thank you again, will report back

  • New video card from ATI

    Hello,
    Its been a long time since I have been on the discussions board for the G4 powermacs. I have currently my G4 powermac powerPC Digital Audio 733mhz/1MB L3 cache. I have an AGP ATI 7000 radeon which is 64MB. I was wondering, because I was browsing through ATI and they have a 512MB video card option for Macs.
    My question is can this card work in G4's? Not that I am into any hard core gaming, just wanting a low cost solution for seeing what core image looks like on my G4 through Tiger.
    Thanks,
    Nadav

    Hi-
    No.
    The best that you can do is an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Mac (256mb).
    Other options are a flashed PC version of the 9800 (128mb).

  • Question about iMac Video Cards and Video Ram

    I'm trying to decide between two 2012 iMacs. I'm buying it to run Adobe Premiere Pro, and After Effects, to edit and render 1080-720p video footage. The cheaper Mac has NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX graphics processor with 1GB of GDDR5 memory. The higher end one has, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX graphics processor with 2GB of GDDR5 memory. Most importantly, is the extra GB of Vram worth it? Secondarily, is the GTX 680MX(vs. 675MX) worth it? I'm trying to keep it cheap, so unless there's a notable difference, I need to go with the first one. Thanks for the help!

    mostly video memory is used to hold textures for fast blittering when one run fullscreen 3d games 2d image program and video edit programs does not really take advantage of more video memory then they need to hold the back buffer of the screen which is pretty much just horizontal amount of columns multiplied by vertical lines multiplied by 4 as in the 4 bytes used by the colours

  • Should I get a new video card?

    Hello,
    I currently have a Power Mac G5 with dual 1.8 GHz processors and the GeForce 5200 video card.
    I have Final Cut Studio 2 and I cannot use Color.
    Not being able to use Color is not a deciding factor at this point for getting a new video card, but I just purchased a new Canon XH-A1.
    So from now on I will be editing in high definition. My main question is: Will getting a better video card effect render times, or is that strictly how fast your processor is?
    If I should get a new video card and am not looking to spend a whole lot of money, what kind of video card would be reccomended? Also, is there such thing as third party companies making video card for Mac computers like, for example, EVGA does for windows computers?
    Any help would be appreciated thanks!

    Hi:
    Will getting a better video card effect render times, or is that strictly how fast your processor is?
    More memory will NOT give you better render times. You'll get better performance on using FxPlug (GPU accelerated) effects in FCP.
    Motion is almost "unusable" with your standard GeForce 5200.
    About GPU upgrade options read this thread:

  • New Video Card options

    I have a first generation MacPro with the ATI Radeon X1900 and I have been experiencing some issues. First, my computer has been making a lot of noise from a fan, and I have read in several places that this has often been the ATI video cards. Also, recently I have been experiencing some issues with rendering in my applications. I play World of Warcraft, and lately when it rains in the game, it starts looking fuzzy. It could be a problem with the software, but with the fan issue I am more inclined to just replace the card and hopefully fix both issues.
    About two months ago the signal from my Mac to my monitor gave out entirely. When that happened, I called the Apple Store and they told me any PCI-Express video card would be compatible, so I picked up an Nvidea GeForce 8800 GT. It did not fix the problem and I brought it into the Apple Store and they determined it was the video controller on the motherboard that caused the issue. However, they were not able to get the Nvidea card to work with my computer, so I just went back to the ATI card after that.
    So, after all that, my question is what Video cards are compatible with the first generation Mac Pro on OS X version 10.4.11, and are there extra steps I have to do to get the hardware to work? Are there drivers or software I need to download before swapping out the cards?
    Thank you,
    Tim

    Your choices are:
    X1900 for $399 if you stay with 10.4.11
    Radeon 3870 requires 10.5.4 retail $215
    8800GT requires 10.5.3 direct from Nvidia or Apple, two models, one for EFI64 (2008) and the one you want for 2006/7 EFI32 models.

  • New video card for HP Pavillion Elite HPE-170t

    I see by some other questions here several video cards suggested, but those replies were a few years old and those video cards are no longer available.
    So, any suggestions on newer video cards under $200 that will pretty much fit and work as easily as possible? Thanks!

    Thanks for the quick reply.  I don't have another monitor to try, but the artifacts seem to sometimes move along with the mouse cursor. Sometimes I can scrill the artifacts away, other times the screen freezes.
    I do have room for a double width card,  but I was looking at the XFX R7 250E 800MHz 1GB DDR5 DP HDMI DVI Graphics Card, which seems to be a newer model of the XFX AMD Radeon HD 7750 1GB GDDR5 . Both are single wide and don't need an extra power connection.

  • BIOS And new Video card

    So i am buying a new video card MSI GTX 970 and my PC is an h9-1300ex so i was wondring if i need to update bios or anything.
    Thanks.

    Hi, Your PC should be able to run the GTX 970. Open up your PC and check the auxiliary PCI-E power connectors and make sure that your PC has the correct plugs based one the GTX 970 model that you plan on using.  

  • Add a New Video Card to K7N2G

    I've added a new video card to my K7N2G, an ATI Radeon 9700 and it's working, but there seems to be lag when I'm moving between my applications. Do I need to disable my onboard card? If so How do I do it, does anybody know?

    Thanks Wonkanoby !!!!
    Moved from slot 1 to 2, IRQ changed to 16.:D Happy Days :D  are here again. I've been agonizing over this for a few days now. While in my IRQ settings I noticed That my Standard Open HCD USB Host Controller is sharing IRQ 21 with NVIDIA NFORCE MCP Network. Does this have to be addressed also?

  • Trouble adding new video card to p6-2310

    I have the Pavilion P6-2310 (Windows 8.1, 64-bit) and I would like to add a new video card to the empty PCI-E slot in the machine.  I would also like the keep the onboard video capability, as I'm looking to drive 3 monitors.  I have an older GeForce 7300LE that I tried putting in last night and was able to get the card working by turning off Secure Boot and enabling Legacy Mode in the BIOS, but the machine would then not recognize the onboard video.
    There were no settings in the BIOS to enable/disable onboard video (BIOS is AMI 8.04), so I'm wondering if there was a trick to keep the onboard video while using a PCI-E graphics card.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi:
    When you install a discrete video card, the onboard graphics is automatically disabled.
    Please see the video specs for the motherboard in your PC at the link below.
