matrox g200

[tdoc]

Looking for help from anyone. I just bought a G200 digital/analog capable quad card. Haven't installed it yet. I have four analog monitors. Will the Matrox DVI cables work for analog monitors or only digital?

Thanks in advance,

Huh?

The Matrox card comes with the cables for conneting to analog monitors.

The connection on a DVI-D cable from Matrox will not fit on a standard VGA output connector.

Thanks Nitro. You seem to be the multi-monitor hardware god of the site! I bought the card on e-bay. As is so often the case, no cables came with. I wanted to buy DVI-D cables now for when I upgrade to digital flat-panels later. It looks like they won't work for my older monitors. At least the analog cables are relatively cheap.

I also just bought a G200 MMS (Quad) to work with my G550 millenium dual head card.
Everything works fine here. Just wanted to mention the sit eI bought from (It is cheap and fast / accurate as far as I know)

I payed $299,- for the Quad card with cables included.
