Pin 9

Pin 9 KEY/PWR is not used on some hardware and some VGA cables do not have this pin. The article does not mention this. 104.228.101.152 (talk) 20:13, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading information

Despite the tone of this article, VGA is very much alive and will continue to be so for some time. All major manufacturers of video monitors continue to equip their product with VGA ports.

Only older series of video cards and motherboards (for use with an integrated GPU) may still have a VGA or DVI-I connector available.

That's nonsense. Server motherboards with built in video output that video through VGA. As I said, VGA, like RIA-232, isn't going anywhere.

Vga

The Video Graphics Array (VGA) connector is a standard connector used for computer video output. Originating with the 1987 IBM PS/2 and its VGA graphics system, the 15-pin connector went on to become ubiquitous on PCs,[1] as well as many monitors, projectors and high-definition television sets. 2402:3A80:155A:83CE:0:13:C273:F01 (talk) 12:43, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
