Definately dont use the vga connection, any DVI cable will do as it's a digital signal and unless you are running very long lengths you can use pretty much any cable.

But you say any dvi cable, but the ends are all different, then you got dual and single, this is rocket science to me, far out of my comfort zone and i dont understand any of it, lol ( son building his own computer ) snd he's no help. :confused:

Hmm assume you have hdmi from your graphics card.

And DVI at the monitor end.

You could post the spec of each item or images - and the pros can advise.
