I'm getting ready to get a dual 8800GT box up and running (have to get a wireless router to convert to a bridge with Tomato) and I'm wondering about making a dummy plug.

I have a bunch of those DVI to VGA adapters that, for some reason, still come with GPUs to this day. All I should have to do is jam 75-ohm resistors into pins 1-3 correct? I think eventually I'll buy some parts from Allied or Newark and make a few nicer, cleaner looking dummy plugs, but this should work fine for now.
 
do a google image search for "vga dummy plug"

That will give you the diagram. I'd post it but I'm at the beach on my phone...... :)
