DVI and HDMI cables are superior to component cables now because they deliver signals in digital format. They are ideal for DVI cables available to get your system up and running.
Types of DVI Cables
As you know, there are digital, analog, and digital/analog DVI cables. Nowadays the only DVI cables we use are DVI adaptor to compensate for Apple's odd decision in digital video output connectors.
* A lot of the time, your output device and screen will not have the same connectors, so you may want to purchase an adapting DVI cable like a Mini DVI to DVI.
