I just bought a new gaming system and I opted out of getting a monitor to save some money (I already have a 19" CRT monitor).
The GeForce 8600 GTS only has DVI connections and my CRT obviously only has a VGA (D-Sub) connection.
I plan on buying a DVI-VGA connector and using my old CRT monitor. Has anyone done this before? I read as long as your monitor is 22" or less and you don't max out the resolution that no significant reduction in performance will be noticable.
I'm a little worried that I may see a performance reduction after having spent all this money on a new computer (can't afford a new monitor) and just want some input if anyone has attempted the same.
Thanks
