<< At newegg.com in the description for the Radeon 8500 OEM says it comes with no DVI to VGA adaptor. My question is is this something that you need because i would like to get it for as cheep as possible even if its clocked a little slower than the retail. >>
The DVI to VGA adapter is needed if you wish to connect two CRT monitors with VGA adapters to the R8500 at once. Any other form of HydraVision arrangement it isnt needed, nor do you need it if your not going to be utilizing HydraVision.
