youthedog Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 What's the difference between the two? Some monitors don't have DVI and I was wondering if there was any quality difference or major differences between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plaayer Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 DVI is a digital signal, while D-Sub (or VGA) is an analog signal. That is it. Of course, there are perks to going with DVI such as 120hz frequencies, 3D, and being able to carry sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youthedog Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Ah ok thanks. Probably why they have HDMI, also assuming there's miniscule difference between HDMI and DVI too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
