It's not a TV unfortunately. Unless you want to download movies and use it to play back on the TV?

that connector set is going to be about a foot long.
Had to do something similar today. Got a new gfx card that doesn't do VGA and I've got a VGA monitor to hook up to it as a second monitor. The card itself has 1 hdmi out, 1 dvi-d out and three display ports. No. 1 is using the hdmi and I don't have a display port socket in either monitor, so given what I've got, it's going dvi-d to generic DVI then a DVI to VGA them plugging the monitor in. I've ordered a DVI to VGA connector from the eBay to get it tidied up.

DVI-D only carries the digital signal, if you want to go to VGA you need either a DVI-I output or an active digital/analogue converter to render the VGA signal from the digital one.

I did wonder why it wasn't working with the current setup! The display port adaptor I've ordered'll sort it all out.
