For TVs and consoles, <strong>HDMI</strong> is the only way to go. <strong>USB-C</strong> carries video, data, and power in a single cable, while <strong>DVI</strong> and <strong>VGA</strong> are now mostly used for legacy devices. </div> <p>The biggest source of confusion isn’t the connector itself, but the <strong>version</strong>. Two HDMI cables might have the same plug but can have very different bandwidths; it is this bandwidth that determines which resolution and how many Hz reach your screen.</p>
