Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a video interface standard designed to maximize the visual quality of digital display devices such as flat panel LCD computer displays and digital projectors. Because DVI is a video-only standard, a graphics card with DVI port, even one with a DVI-HDMI adapter sends uncompressed digital video data to a display but does not send audio.
