no it wont work, the dvi ports on your graphics card are outputs not inputs. if you monitor doesn't have dvi, then it will have vga instead, in that case just buy a xbox 360 vga cable - about £3 off ebay.

Well to tell you the truth I've not actually tried it but it seems like it should work. I run my ps3 hdmi to dvi on my monitor tho. Hope it works. Should give it a try.
