Getting DVI signal on a VGA monitor
Is it possible to buy an adapter like http://www.gefen.com/kvm/product.jsp?prod_id=1309 and create a DVI signal into my monitor, which doesnt come with any DVI port? My LCD only has a VGA port, and My next vid card will probably have a DVI port on it. So if I buy the adapter and put it on my vid card, and connect the vga cable from my monitor, will my monitor have DVI quality? Thanks in advance.

hum... if your monitor won't support DVI then it would be pointless to try anything right now. To get true DVI images you need a DVI ready card and monitor. Save up your money and do it all at once...
The new Nvidia Geforce 6600GT looks like a solid card and it's going to be priced at $199.99... you'll see it even lower than that soon enough. It's 3 times faster than the ATI X600XT & it is SLI ready...
Grab one of those and a new monitor and let DOOM3 & Half Life 2 rip!
