As was mentioned earlier, the eVGA GeForce 6800 GT uses two DVI connectors. This is very useful for those wishing to run dual LCD displays through digital connections. There are very few video cards on the market currently that offer dual DVI connectors. Often the cards will come with a single DVI and single VGA connector.

For those that still have an older CRT monitor or an LCD that uses an analog VGA connector, the DVI connectors also carry an analog signal. By using the DVI to VGA adapters included with the card, these monitors can be properly connected to the video card.

Just above the two DVI connectors is an S-Video connector. This connector is also available for use connecting to external TV displays. It does not accept any S-Video input into the computer often referred to by manufacturers as VIVO (Video In Video Out).
