Re: DVI vs. HDMI
said by DKS  :said by kusiobache :EDIT: TO make it short, I guess what I'm saying is... Do DVI cables support 1920 X 1080 resolutions, and also higher resolutions and/or Dual Monitors? In short, yes. There IS a subjective difference between DVI output and HDMI output. On my Samsung 220HD monitor the HDMI output to screen is much sharper through my EVGA GTX260 than the DVI output. Well worth the cost of the cable (which doesn't jiggle). Your monitor and video card may give you different results. then there's a further issue somewhere. HDMI is DVI, but with audio and a condensed form factor. also, since theyre both digital, there isnt really a way for one to have a better picture based on the cable. digital is digital, it's either 100% indicitive of the source or it's 0% (static/black/etc). maybe not the entire screen, but the image is either fully on and full source quality or it's off.

Not really. As I said, it's a subjective issue. I have a sharper image with HDMI vs. DVI.
