Asus 1080ti Turbo 3d vision?
So, I just got an Asus 1080ti turbo https://www.amazon.com/GeForce-Gaming-DisplayPort-Graphics-TURBO-GTX1080TI-11G/dp/B06Y31FYWY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1497410390&sr=8-1&keywords=ASUS+Geforce+1080ti+Turbo and I noticed that it didn't have any DVI ports. I figured "no biggie, I'll just use HDMI." So, I decided to plug it in. But now, it seems like I apparently NEED DVI to do 3d on my monitor? Am I screwed? What can I do?

[url][/url]You can buy HDMI-DVI connectors on Amazon.com. Something like the following might work: [url]https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-DVI-D-Video-Cable-Adapter/dp/B009YCASUW/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1497646129&sr=8-6&keywords=hdmi-dvi+connector[/url] I am not sure if there is anything else going on with 3DVision that might negate using these, but it has to be worth a try for $10 given what you just spent on your graphics card. In the meantime, can you use 3D TVPlay instead (on my system, if I plug in HDMI the 3DTV Play option appears in the 3d Vision control panel, or you can run the wizard again).

Or you can return it and get a aftermarket 1080 TI with DVI like I did. https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/997204/geforce-1080-ti-does-not-have-dvi-port/
