So I have just finished building my new pc and I have an EVGA GTX 1060 in with a MSI Z170a-G45 motherboard. I am currently using an old TV I had as the display as my old computer monitor can only take a VGA connection. Someone suggested that a DVI to VGA adapter may be an option as the graphics card supports DVI. Would this work or does the graphics card need to be specifically compatible with such an adapter? If so, is it?

Thanks,
Luke
