DVI-TO-VGA or DVI-TO-HDMI adapter? for PC gaming?

I purchased a 24 inch samsun Syncmaster 2494 Pc monitor last year. I mainly use my pc for high end gaming. Ive been using DVI-to-VGA adapter to connect my gtx 470 video card to monitor for the past year thinking that was the only option. Then jsut a bit ago i was cleaning and found a hdmi unopened cable and a adapter, soChanged my setup to DVI-to-HDMI, connecting my video card via a very slim hdmi cable to the monitor. I have no idea what the difference between them are, and which one is better for PC gaming. They both seem to work with my computer/video card. Can someone please tell me which i should use? or if it even matters?|||I don't think it matters. While HDMI is the best for things like watching HDTV and Blu-ray, your graphics cards outputs on DVI. Therefore, no matter what input you use for your monitor, the output on the graphics card can only be as high as DVI. Just stick with the HDMI. It's newer technology anyways.
