I don’t know how to do it, but I know it’s possible to get your motherboard’s HDMI port, if it has one, to display the output from the GPU. Might help you hold out if you’re not otherwise looking to upgrade.

Congratulations! I’m hoping I will get to try it soon. I get internet in a week, but I have to find a graphics card or monitor with display port. My HDMI port got fucked on my current GPU

Sorry to hear that. I had issues with my main laptop for a few months. In the end I just gave up and bought a desktop PC.

I’m hoping I can find an old graphics card in storage, or a buddy with one. I don’t have any money for replacing anything at the moment. Gonna look into the tip from the user below about the port on the mobo

On a quick search I’m seeing displayport to HDMI adapters as cheap as $6 on Amazon and $2 on eBay.
