WRT CRTs, not necessarily. It depends upon whether the video card or the CRT has the better DAC (digital-to-analog converter). I used to have an NEC FP1350X w/ DVI, and it was noticably crisper using DVI-D even with a Matrox G550. VGA cable quality is also a factor since it's carrying an analog signal, but I had an expensive, properly shielded cable when I compared the two.Originally posted by: JBT

Digital is if its a digital display. IE: Plasma, LCD, DLP or any other type of HDTV.
If its an analog display like a CRT then analog is going to be better.
