[QUOTE="NLS, post: 144505, member: 20102"] I saw major change when I switched from VGA to DVI. In fact I see it everyday with my other two (ie. not the HTPC) computers since I use two monitors that are connected to DVI on one and DVI on the other and again on VGA on both (Why not use one monitor for each computer? Well my second monitor is really a spare I might even remove in the future and after all I have a single keyboard/mouse and switch anyway). Believe me there is a clear difference between VGA and DVI display (it is clear when you switch maybe ten times a day between VGA/DVI on the same monitor). Ah and add to that, that the system (well the Gfx card) skips a whole digital to analog step and even performs faster (I have seen this beyond doubt back when I had a far less powerful system - the switch to DVI... made it display faster, was really obvious in HD playback). ...but yes I understand your pixel mapping problem, which is much more important (if the pixels don't fit the panel the effect is much worse than the difference between VGA and DVI). Thankfully I didn't have that problem (I took care to get a nice 1920x1080 progressive, 1:1 pixel mapped HDMI TV). [/QUOTE]
