I think Kranky is asking what type of plug is on the back of 7800.

No, an S-video won't plug-in there.

It's a special 9-pin nVidia plug that ends in a breakout of what AG said above (sometimes the box even has an S-Video IN)

EDIT: something like this should also work

Isn't the high-tech term for that adapter a "dongle"? (JK..)

 

Actually the correct term is a pigtail. A dongle is a hardware device (often in a thumbdrive package) that serves as a security key for a software application. However, over the years pigtails are often incorrectly referred to as dongles.

Actually .... in the documentation that came with a few of the ATI All-In-Wonder cards I purchased, they also called them dongles ... (VIVO Dongle)

 

It appears that they still do ....

 

Look at the bottom of the page ...

Again, the writers of the documentation and that site are incorrectly referring to the included pigtails as dongles. These days most people don't know the difference and/or think that a dongle sounds better than a pigtail.
