Yes, shouldn't be a problem. This is what I bought for the same purpose. Although we really should upgrade so we can use the HDMI-HDMI cables.

If you have a DVI-I output on your card the answer is yes. All consumer video cards should have at least one DVI-I output. The other DVI output is DVI-D, which doesn't have the pin holes around the flat blade slot for analog connections. Without looking real close DVI-I and DVI-D look the same.

Unfortunately this will not fit with a VGA port. This is a DVI cable for HD capable monitors. That's why the end stock is a different color code. VGA"s are blue & DVI's are white.

With the factory power supply, I have the EVGA GTX 650 installed in my system. Be sure to plug-in the 6 pin cable from the power supply to the video card. (required) Here's the link <http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-1024MB-Graphics-01G-P4-2650-KR/dp/B00966IU4M/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1387125518&sr;=8-1-spell&keywords;=EVGA+GXT+650>

I would not recommend this graphics card, get one with a fan, but if you really want this card, it will work with a computer asking it has about 300 watt powe supply

Insufficient information. There are five different video cards that can come with a stock OptiPlex 780s, so it may or may not work for you without any changes. Look on the back for two VGA ports that are near each other (blue 25-pin trapezoidal ports). If you have them, it'll work. If not, then probably not, though you may be able to make it work with a DVI-to-VGA adapter (if there's a white port next to a blue port).

No, this card has 2 DVI, 1 HDMI and 1 Display Port, this one doesn't have a vga port.

The card comes with a 2 PCI-E 6 pin to 8 pin adapter. Connections are Duel link DVI-I, single link DVI-I (not 100% on this one as I'm using it and can't look at it), HDMI, and full sized display port. The cables for these connectors will most likely come with your monitor. All I'm using is the DVI cable that came with mine.

I am not sure about the power supply/ computer you have. I have used this card in two different hp computer with the standard power supply with no problems. It'sa great card to replace standard graphics on the mobo. I would consider a more expensive card if you are a gamer.

no, it's a proprietary connector (on card) which fits a breakout cable (provided with card) which in turn provides 2 DVI ports. so in short - 2 DVI output, no VGA. You can of course place a DVI to VGA adapter (passive) on one of the DVI outputs (cable) and thus achieve DVI+VGA but it seems too much hassle given there are many card that will provide that (DVI+VGA) natively, IF that is what you're looking for. Hope that helps.

Tucker, I can't really answer that question because I don't know what card they put in the previous version. I can tell you, however that the AMD Radeon HD 7870 that they put into this version rated extremely well and in a comparison to the NVidia or Intel graphics card it was clearly the best card. I am extremely pleased with the graphics!

The DVI works fine. The problem is likely your video card and possibly the cable.Read the specs and you will see that it requires a specific kind of DVI (there are four).The cable looks similar but the pin-outs are different.Look for a video card that supports the dual DVI connection.These cards tend to be more expensive, which makes sense as you are pushing a high resolution.You will need a card with at least 2 Gig of memory (prefer DDR5; or min DDR3) or your experience will suffer.Look at an AMD Radeon 7700 series or higher card.If I recall correctly, it requires dual DVI.

You can use either, just be sure that your video card has all the power connectors socketed, otherwise you will have degraded performance, some cards will not work at all unless fully powered. Match the cable to you video card it does not matter which power receptacle that you use. They are just labeled for convenience.

You are correct, plug the adapter into your Graphics Card and then use your own DVI cable. Please be aware that this adapter will not work for monitors that require Dual-Link bandwidth (120hz+ monitors, or resolutions above 1920x1200).

Will work with any graphics card. I would reccomend a different motherboard as the 24-pin connector is in the upper left hand corner of the board and in order to connect it to my power supply I had to order a 24-pin extension cable. Other than that, I have no current issues with the motherboard.

This graphics card manufacturers specifications call for a minimum power supply of 500 Watts. In the real world I would suspect that if you have a quality power supply of at least 350 Watts it would probably work. That being said, a 350 - 450 Watt power supply may fail at anytime or prematurely. Additionally, no secondary power connector is required...just the PCI Express slot on your motherboard. Good Luck

Yes, your gpu supports dual link dvi, which is the cable that comes in the monitors box.
