If the motherboard has a vga out, then yes

I don't have Sig's turned on, if it is a mATX board then generally yes, as Blaaislaai said.

Unfortunately the mobo doesn't so you will have to wait iron man.

ok but is it possible to get something similar to a graphics card just cheaper that fits into a slot and has a vga out? i have a 9600gt in my old pc wich i'l put in the new one for time being BUT i still need the old pc running but it doesn have a vga out on the mobo either. so is there something like this i can buy?

Yes, it's called a graphics card

 

[Drake2007]

There are cheaper VGA cards e.g.

MSI NX8400GS-TD512EH, 512MB 16X PCI-E should retail at +-R380, it will do the job.

thats too expensive. i mean something that isnt a graphics accelerator just the port?

If it's just the port what's going to do the accelerating?

Place the 9600GT back in the old PC and remote desktop the new PC through Ethernet...

And next week show us how to walk on water. No graphics card no POST.
