Hi all,

I just got a 19" BenQ LCD and was wondering,

should i go out an buy a DVI cable instead of using hte analog(i think) cable that came with it?

also, will any DVI Cable work?

thanks

Welcome back to PCHF.

This is definetely a hardware question which is not my area of expertise. But as you know by now, we have a great team on board and I am sure one of them will get back to you as soo as possibel with the answer.

Nice to see you in the forums,

In my opinion it really doesn't make much of a difference.... i've tried both and me and my friends couldn't tell the difference, however i found this:

CRTs rarely provide support for digital signals; DVI support is found primarily on LCDs. However, the advantage of digital signals for LCDs is of somewhat less importance now than it was a few years ago. Analog signal processing has improved to the point where major differences in image quality can be difficult to detect. Unless you're a pro photographer, a prepress professional, or someone else who needs superprecise, top-notch image quality, you should be fine using a CRT or an LCD on an analog signal.


so.... unless ur a photographer, it don't matter, i'd still use the dvi tho
