Hello, users!

Can somebody compare and contrast the significance between an HDMI cable and a DVI input? I've been thinking for so long that an HDMI input display has an advantage for LCD monitors than the DVI ones from a video card.

What could be the simplest way to determine that an HDMI cable indeed has little to offer than a DVI display?

I'm currently using DVI by default, but I heard recommendations from different forums that I switch to HDMI input. And it gets a little confusing. Thanks :)
 
As Cobalt said, if you don't need sound to your monitor then HDMI will be the same as DVI.
 
Exactly the same unless you're using dual-link DVI on a higher than 1080p monitor - then you might start running into some issues if you try that with HDMI.
