Default DVI Port on the 4870X2 Card


What Is the Default DVI Port on the 4870X2 Card?


The 4870 X2 is a high-performance graphics card developed by AMD. The 4870 X2 incorporates 2 GB of GDDR5 memory to deliver 2.4 teraflops of graphics power. The card includes a number of ports for connecting one or more monitor or display devices.

Default DVI Port
The default DVI port for ATI Radeon HD 4800 series graphics cards, such as the 4870 X2, is the port on the left that is labeled "1" in the Radeon HD 4800 series user guide. This DVI port can be used to connect a single monitor or video display directly to the graphics card itself or by using a display adapter such as a DVI-to-VGA or DVI-to-HDMI converter.

Secondary DVI Port
The secondary DVI port for ATI Radeon HD 4800 series graphics card can be used to extend the desktop using a dual-monitor system or connect to another display device such as an HDTV or projector. Like the default DVI port, a video display device can be connected directly to the DVI port, or an adapter such as a DVI-to-VGA or DVI-to-HDMI converter can be used to connect the display device.

TV/HDTV Output
Besides the two DVI ports on the 4870 X2 card, the graphics card also includes a 7-pin HDTV output connector for connecting the graphics card to display on an HDTV or standard television. A 7-pin output cable can be connected to the output connector and allows for the connection of a HDTV device using composite or standard RCA cables.
