Quote from: Matt I thought the only difference between DVI and HDMI was that HDMI can carry audio as well? Didn't know there were any differences between the video streams.
Well Matt, I think that's essentially correct. in addition to carrying audio, HDMI increases the throughput from 3ish gigabits to something like ~10Gb, not that's going to make any difference for this monitor's resolution.
But a DVI lead isn't going to help with HDMI only devices I was kinda annoyed they included only 2 leads when the monitor has 3 kinds of inputs.
As a side note, I wouldn't use the HDMI sound to say, watch a movie, as the speakers on the monitor are tinny at best

Quote from: Pedro Buy an HDMI lead as well as it comes with DVI and VGA leads only.
Quote from: Pedro But a DVI lead isn't going to help with HDMI only devices I was kinda annoyed they included only 2 leads when the monitor has 3 kinds of inputs.
You were lucky Pedro, I got some new monitors at work about a year ago, with VGA, DVI and HDMI inputs, and it only came with a VGA cable, my machine only has Display Port connections, it was a good job I already had DP to DVI leads.
The only problem I found with connecting Monitors on HDMI was the atrocious behaviour of the AMD (ATI) drivers in Windows 7, which decided to down-sample the image and put a 1cm border around it.
A few hours of fiddling and several driver re-installations eventually made them behave!

I have found the extra height invaluable when editing photos (even for videos).
Edit: Forgot to add that I have a 26" 16:10 Iiyama.
