Hi,
I'm considering buying a new tower desktop (EliteDesk 800 G6), which has DisplayPort connectors and USB A&C.
I currently have 2 monitors - HP 22fw (1VGA + 1 HDMI) and HP 22xi (1VGA + 1 HDMI + 1DVI-D)
I currently use HDMI + DVI-D with my old HP 500-409.
So I'm gonna need to go with adaptors - the question is what what would be the best options to go for?
A quick search online reveals a plethora of possible adaptors - DisplayPort-VGA, DisplayPort-HDMI, DisplayPort-DVI-D, USBC-HDMI, USBC-DVI-D etc etc...
Are there any adaptor combinations that are better in terms of display quality?
In general, would there be a reduction in quality compared to native VGA/HDMI/DVI-D systems?
I work in IT so I'm pretty much 8 hours a day in front of the screens, but dont use so much for videos etc.
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
