Solution
HDMI, DVI, VGA - none of them have any bearing on the max fps that's attainable. The key components in that regard are the graphics card and the processing power of the CPU.
It could very well be the converter that's to blame. Ideally you should avoid using them. The adapter won't damage anything, but at the very least you should use a standard VGA cable without an adapter if that's possible, if only to confirm that the adapter is the culprit.

Generally speaking, as regards graphics and colour quality on-screen, DVI offers no discernible ddifference over VGA. Certainly I could see no difference between the two that would compel me to use DVI.
