Question Add dvi output

[kallekill]

I got a 30" Dell display that need DVI dual link input. My Geforce 2080 doesn't have DVI. Is there some way to add DVI output to my graphics card?

Is it possible to add a extra card with DVI output and still use the 2080 as the main card? Or would an adapter like this work?

I've never used a add-on card like that; not sure how it would work in conjunction with the GPU card--if at all.

You're better off just using a DP to DVI or HDMI to DVI adapter, off of the card itself, if you want to use that monitor.

You just need an adapter like this: https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-DisplayPort-DVI-Adapter-Dual-Link/dp/B00A493CNY

This adapter will *NOT* work. It is DVI-D only, NOT Dual-Link DVI.

Dual-Link requires an active adapter, which is not cheap at all, the following one works for resolutions up to 2560x1600@60Hz: https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-DisplayPort-DVI-Adapter-Dual-Link/dp/B00A493CNY

I knew that, I posted the wrong link. Sorry OP. I fixed my link.

Here's a displayport to Dual-link DVI cable, that's a bit cheaper: https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16812329636?Description=DVI dual link to displayport&cm_re=DVI_dual_link_to_displayport-_-12-329-636-_-Product
it also only goes to 2560x1600.

I've had some fun with this trying to drive an old 120hz 1080p monitor. The HDMI adapters do not work not matter what bandwidth claims they make. The first cheap active displayport -> dual dvi allowed me to select 120hz which kind of worked but their was some artifacting so had to give up. To be fair that adapter claimed up to 4k@30hz, but never claimed fullhd@120hz. Just bought a more expensive adapter but it hasn't arrived yet.

Anyway if you want high res not high hertz one of these *might* work.
