HDMI to DVI passive adapters and DisplayPort to DVI passive adapters are both equally preferable. DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI active adapter.
If the extra bandwidth of Dual-Link DVI is required, then only one option is available:
VGA to DVI-I passive adapter ( ONLY if the display has a DVI-I port this is very unusual). DisplayPort to ( Single-Link) DVI active adapter (required for 3+ monitors on some older graphics cards see here). If you need to connect to a display's DVI input, and the bandwidth of Single-Link DVI is enough for your display, then the following options are available (in order of preference): Video formats which require more bandwidth than those (such as 1920×1080 at 144 Hz or 2560×1600 at 60 Hz) will require Dual-Link DVI. Single-Link DVI provides enough bandwidth for 1920×1200 at 60 Hz or 2560×1600 at 30 Hz. These adapters only work from DisplayPort output to DVI/HDMI input, not in the reverse configuration. Neither of these options are really preferable over the other (both are finicky and unreliable), but HDMI to DisplayPort active adapters are slightly more common.ĭisplayPort-to-DVI or DisplayPort-to-HDMI passive adapters will NOT work for this configuration. If you absolutely need to connect to a monitor's DisplayPort input from a non-DP output, then the following options are available: Active adapters to a DisplayPort input should only be considered as a last resort, if the display has no other available ports to connect to. If you don't have a native DisplayPort output on your device, consider trying to connect to a different type of port on the display. There is no way to do this without an active adapter, and these adapters tend to be finicky and unreliable. Other than that, it is generally very difficult to connect to a monitor's DisplayPort input if you don't have a native DisplayPort output available from your computer/source device. The only port that can be easily adapted to DisplayPort is a USB Type-C port with DisplayPort Alternate Mode support (this includes Thunderbolt 3 ports), which can be done using a: (verbal warning only, no points assigned) It is not for the timid, nor for anyone hoping toĮasily understand what's even going on in this thing.
