Is it okay to use HDMI to DVI or DVI to VGA cables?

[REGULARDREAMS]

Hi guys I wanna ask if a HDMI to VGA cable affects the performance of a video card to the monitor? Is that kind of converted cables can affect the output in the monitor?

only ...to VGA will affect quality, everything else is digital to digital.

Wait, how about DP to DVI?

What do you mean? I don't have speaker in my monitor.

that's fine then, hdmi and DP are vision + sound, DVI is vision only.
