I currently have an MSI GP62 6QF Gaming Laptop with one HDMI 1.4 output and a Mini-Display Port output.
I am going to buy an Acer VA KA270Hbid monitor to connect to the laptop. The monitor has VGA, DVI and HDMI connections. The monitor does not have speakers.
My question is: what is the best way to connect the monitor to my laptop? Would it be best to go with an HDMI to HDMI cable? Or would it be better to go with an HDMI from the monitor to the Mini-DisplayPort on the laptop? Having to transmit sound is not an issue in my case as the monitor does not have speakers, i am only interested in video.
Any suggestions and advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
