[RESOLVED] nvidia gtx 650 graphic card output ports

[terryZ]

i'm not sure exactly where to post this, but i'll try here.

there are 3 output ports on my gtx 650:



though not shown in the photo, i am using both dvi ports for monitors. i would like to use the mini-hdmi for my tv. however, there is not really much space there. the housing is too large and butts up against the dvi plug.

is there an adapter somewhere that i could use that has a minimum housing for the mini-hdmi plug that anyone knows about?

tahnks in advance,

terry

ps. also posted to the nvidia forum.

i would like to use the mini-html for my tv.

I think you mean HDMI, not HTML. So you're looking for a mini-HDMI to HDMI adapter like this?

I'm sure you can find a better deal. I can't really post any auction/shopping links right now.

oops on the html lol. i'll correct that now.

i already have a mini-to-regular hdmi cable. it has a hard time getting into that space between the middle dvi plug (not shown) and the left "wall". i was wondering if there is a mini-hdmi cable or extension that has less "housing" mass than the one i have.

maybe this is not describable without a video

^^^ sorry if i wasn't clear.

[Midknyte]

maybe you need to post a pic of your cable. What about the Evga adapter? Does that look like it would fit?

Otherwise, you'd just have to look at different shopping sites. They don't list housing size.

[terryZ]

it's a standard mini-hdmi cable.

tho it shows empty in the picture, i do have a second monitor in that center hdmi slot right now.

it's just such a very tight fit that the mini-hdmi cable doesn't sit correctly in the port. i'm wondering if i can shave a bit off the rubber part of the plug lol.

[Midknyte]

That's a practical solution.
