Have I just never realized that the sockets of video cards are "upside down" when inserted? 😅 Or is this an illusion created by how expansion card are displayed when advertised?

I can't believe I have been building PCs for five years and never reacted to this before.

As for the outputs from the computer, I purposefully chose a graphics card (the bottom card in the images) with no DP, because my monitor only has VGA and HDMI in. 😊 And as for inputs to the computer, I'm only going to be recording analog signals from sources such as VHS📼, Mini DV📹 and audio cassette tapes📟 and that one DVI-I input (top card in the images) has adapters for both component video (YPbPr), composit video (RCA, S-video and SCART), VGA and HDMI. 📺
