I’m currently purchasing a new GPU and specifically settled on the MSI 4070 Super. I’m all set for everything except connecting the display to the card.

Currently, the display I have (which isn’t being upgraded for now) only has two input options: DVI and VGA. The new GPU only provides HDMI or Display Port. This isn’t really a problem as adapters/cables exist to go from Display Port/HDMI to DVI-D.

But, the question I have is, which is the better option, or does it make any difference? And, are there any “gotchas” I should watch out for when buying the cable?

I realize that I am likely over-thinking this, but I would rather ask a stupid question than make a stupid mistake.

    That’s just the poke in the right direction I needed, thank you.
