I believe you are talking about a DVI to VGA convertor. You can buy them from anywhere but it is only necessary for older monitors. If you have anything that is modern it should have HDMI or DVI that you can use.

That's odd, all graphics card usually feature a full HDMI plug. Are you able to take a picture?

Are you using the video card ports located below the rear fan and running horizontal or the motherboard ports next to the fan and next to the USB ports ?    The video card ports , what you need to use, might have black plastic caps covering them.

Let us know how you make out.

Might be a mini HDMI port which you will need to buy a mini HDMI to HDMI cable/converter.
