Thank you for the question. Unless your monitor is very, very old, you might be thinking of the 3-prong plug that connects the monitor to an electrical outlet. Currently, for connecting your monitor to a PC, it should have one of these outlets: a VGA or DVI connection (oblong ports with several pins), HDMI (it looks similar to USB-A but with curved corners), or DisplayPort (it looks like a USB-C port). Any of these ports will work although you might need an adapter or different cable than you currently have. The Elite Mini 800 G9 has one HDMI and three DisplayPort connections, so you have some choice in how to connect your monitor. We recommend taking a picture of the back of your monitor with your phone and visiting your local Best Buy. Show them the picture. The associate will be able to match you with the proper cable or adapter to connect your monitor to this PC.
