DisplayPort or HDMI?

[Hoggorm]

Hello,

I have a MSI GeForce RTX 3090 Ti GAMING X TRIO and a TUF VG27WQ1B monitor. Both allow DisplayPort and HDMI connections.

What should I use for best quality and performance?

Try DP first.

I'll do that. Thank you.

What am I looking for would you say?

That monitor on HDMI 2.0 supports up to only 144 Hz at its native resolution, while DisplayPort supports up to 165 Hz refresh.

Yes, I see that in the Nvidia Control Panel. 

I'll try with the DisplayPort for some time and see if it works well

DP > HDMI, and is License/Royalty Free.

The only Reason HDMI Still exists on GPU's is because the masses would have a stroke, plus TV's haven't adopted DP's for Some reason.

I did see a BluRay player with a DP1.4 connector, but it was an off brand, saving some $$$ by not having an HDMI Port.
