Monitor Compatibility. Help!

Hi guys,

I just ordered this PC and it comes with a radeon 7850 (hdmi, Mini DisplayPort, DVI-I). I'm wondering of what cable to plug the monitor to my video card. I have a HP Compaq LA2206x (DVI-D Single, Display Port, VGA)

Anyone know??

Either use a DVI cable or a Display Port to Mini Display Port. If the cost is an issue, the DVI will likely be cheaper and have the same picture quality.

I have a DVI-D(single link) cable that came with my monitor. Will that fit in a normal DVI -I port?

Yes.
