Which DVI output should I use?

I have been checking out the DVI outputs on a new Gainward GeForce GTX 560 Ti Golden Sample card which I have just received, and I see that one is marked 'DVI-I' and the other one 'DVI-D', and I am not sure which one I should use.

My monitor is a single Samsung SyncMaster B2230, and although I have done a quick bit of 'Googling', I haven't come up with anything conclusive, but I am sure that someone on here will be able to point me in the right direction!

Thanks! :)

Edit: Obviously I am not such a "Wise Guy" after all! ;)

Either. Doesn't really matter, pick the one the cable fits in!

DVI-D is digital only. DVI-I (I=integrated) does either digital or analogue (i.e. VGA) output. DVI to VGA adaptors will only connect to the DVI-I port.
