    Should I get a DVI cord?

    If I buy a DVI cord will it make a noticeable difference in bf2 graphics?

    um....no

    your vga has the same resolution and everything.... old CRT monitors have the best picture for gaming too.

    so, unless youre on svideo or something a DVI cord will make no diff.

        only on longer length chords, but between the 6ft you will not notice a difference, I have used both, there is not a huge difference.

          well.(about 50% sure abut this) but in the new beta 82 drivers, it lets u if u use DVI to do some cool things, but i actaully dont kno what they are, some thing about having a resolution at 800x600 and tricking it to look like 1024x768, but im not relaly sure, just heard it somewhere

            the difference between vga and dvi is that dvi sizes the screen automaticly and thats it!

                Slightly, but it isn't really that noticable.
