    My built PC doesn't have any VGA port on the tower

    Hi, it might be confusing but I just built my first PC today, everything went well until I had to plug it in my monitor, I have no VGA port on my tower? Is this normal? I tried to plug it in the HDMi port but it didn’t worked, what do I do

    what ports does the monitor have?
    if you really need a VGA port then you’ll have to install a graphics card with that port.
    or you could try a HDMI to VGA adapter.

    and yeah, it’s getting more normal to see VGA ports not there, they are slowly phasing them out in lieu of HDMI and DisplayPort as they can’t achieve the high resolutions of the bigger monitors.
