What would be better to hook it up?

RGB cable or the DVI cable?

ive been using S-Video for a couple months now. It connects from the back of my graphics card straight to my big screen. It is easy to put in no knobs to twist The only problem is text can be blurry if it is below a font size of 18 . It is great for games and movies though. 60 ft s-video cables run for about 10 bux on ebay

the dvd-i to hdmi, then vga (which is a form of rgb). never use s-video for hdtv. it's designed for regular tv
