>HA TOO BAD HAVE 2 DVI-D FAGGOT
why is AMD this retarded
I really don't want to buy an nvidia card with a similar price (GTX 970)
>>
>>52993502
Adaptors exist.
>>
AMD HAS NO CRTS
>>
>>52993537
active ones only and they have latency
why only nvidia has DVI-I
>>
>>52993502
......are you fucking stupid? Check the box your graphics card comes in...IT COMES WITH A GOD DAMN ADAPTER YOU MORON
>>
>>52993606
what adapter?
no manufacturer puts analog output on their r9 390
are you >implying to use digital-->analog adapter?
>>
>>52993649
I'm talking about the dvi to vga adapter that comes in the box with the fucking graphics card....are you too retarded to work that out or do you just have no common sense at all?
>>
>>52993582
Because CRTs and VGA are shit.
>>
>>52993704
dvi-d to vga would be an active adapter
do you know the difference between active and passive adapter?
are you not reading the posts at all?
>>
>>52993753
I didn't deem that information relevant since I've never had one with any kind of delay...why not just upgrade past a crt and stop being a fucking hipster?
>>
>>52993795
because good crt > good lcd
and an lcd that is better than my crt is too expensive

This is the dvi to vga adapter that came with my r7 360. I don't know if it's active or passive but it worked on my old monitor so there you go. Afaik all amd cards come with one

that is because it has a DVI-I output

You can't use a passive connector on a DVI digital only.
Look at the connectors on the OP. You wouldn't be able to get a signal, or get it into the connector. He would need an active adapter which is slow and expensive.

Hawaii (290/390) and Fiji can't do analog (VGA) because they removed the ramdac.

Don't buy amd products. They're all poorly designed.
>>
>>52993502
The 979 is not a good card. It's proven. Again. And again. Take your shilling elsewhere. Displayport is a much better option than dvi-i and you know it.

... Because they're poorly designed.

Fiji is displayport only. No HDMI 2.0, only outdated 1.4.

No DVI either, so you can't use ANY flagship 1080p 144hz or 1440p monitors that were made during and before 2013.

No, Polaris uses FinFET.

>>52994071
Because it's outdated and has been for years. Asking why a new graphics card doesn't natively support analogue connections of any kind is like asking why a new motherboard doesn't natively support IDE.

>>52993502
AMD are incompetent
Nvidia are evils

is there a third graphics card provider?

OP:

You are a sperglord.
Use a FreeSync monitor if you're worried about latency.
Sapphire makes a 380x with full DVI-I for sperglords who still care about analog output and latency from digital processing.

I know the joy of cathode ray tubes, but there's a good bunch of reasons LCD displays overtook them. Get with the times.

I don't even use my CRTs anymore (for space reasons mostly I guess), but LCDs still haven't caught up in the ability to have high motion clarity AND accurate color at the same time.

Stobed IPS might eventually get there, but it seems like color accuracy starts getting TN-esque north of 60 Hz still.
>>
>>52995259
Well, LCDs are cheaper to produce than CRTs, so I guess your choice of image isn't wrong.
>>
Wait for OLED you fucking retard.
>>
>>52994998
Nobody has IDE drives anymore, because they are small and pretty much outdated. Lots of people have VGA only monitors, because they are still perfectly usable.

AMD is the Apple of graphics cards.

because only retards and nostalgiafags stuck with CRTs. You think the manufacturers stop making them to make you cry. No. They make technology that is better
Not even the fucking hippies stay down at the jeans store and throw a bitch fit anymore because they're out of pocjet squares
