I have a monitor that only supports DVI Dual Link & VGA, but my desktop's graphic card can support all except VGA while I only have VGA cable for my monitor. So what I did was buy a HDMI to VGA converter and plug in my VGA cable to the monitor, I am wondering if there are any significant differences between these 2. If there are, I plan to buy DVI cable instead of using this converter.

Not really noticeable if you are focusing on playing the game, but for scenery reason of the game.. not good. Thanks for the info, will buy a dvi instead of using just converter.
