and i see models like This

It took me about 3 minutes to decipher this post. Next time, try some basic punctuation like periods at the end of sentences, commas, semicolons...etc.

If I get what you're saying, you'd like to use monitors that are DVI connector equipped only? If that's the case, why not simply use a VGA to DVI adapter to do the job? You can get those things here.

I bought a card with both dvi and vga out, also because I wanted to try the dvi.
IIRC the dvi works, but only under 5.1
However, there was a bit of problem with not too much space to attach the dvi-cable on the back of the CPU unit.
