I have the EVGA GeForce GTX 970 Super Clocked ACX 2.0 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Card and I bought two monitors and I know it supports dual monitors but there is one thing concerning me the monitors I bought are VGA and the graphics card only came with one "DVI-I" adapter and there is a different slot under it and I did research and the other slot is for "DVI-D" and i cant find an adapter for that? or can I buy a HDMI to VGA adapter and connect that to the other monitor so I can connect both monitors or what can I do please help? I need answers ASAP! :(

    Hey there, you can get some "weird" DisplayPort to VGA adapters () as well and just use those, however keep in mind that display quality might be affected (not necessarily but there is such possibility, at least the ones that you will notice - aside from obvious technical limitations caused by this).
     
     
    Just out of pure curiosity, why did get VGA monitors in the first place? 
    No offense, I'm just asking since this is not really a good solution anymore, especially nowadays where "everything" works via digital signal... unless of course there was no other option for you.

    DisplayPort to VGA: (due to link restrictions, go to Amazon, slash: dp/B0087Y448U)
     
    HDMI to VGA:  (dur to link restrictions, go to Amazon, slash: dp/B00879DM56)
     
    As BornKill mentioned, please be aware that VGA-only monitors are a dying breed these days, so if you have the option to move to a monitor with a digital connection, it would be recommended to get the most of your purchase.  (however, I do still have one VGA monitor that I use for my 3rd monitor via DVI -> VGA, so it'll definitely work)
     
    Good luck!
