Yes, of course you can. Displayport is also a good option. Between the three it doesn't matter which you use, as long as you don't use VGA.

An RX 580 will have 2 HDMI's, 2 Displayports and a DVI. Do check what cable comes included with the monitor, usually Dell gives you a displayport cable.

Hellooo

 

I want to buy this monitor but I'm not sure if I can game on it or even use it...

Multiple connectivity options

Multiple connectivity options

 A comprehensive range of analog and digital connectivity ports and cables are included:

  • VGA
  • DisplayPort
  • DVI-D (excluding DVI-D cables)
  • USB

Impressive screen clarity

Every detail is bright and clear

  • Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution at 60Hz 
  • LED backlit
  • 250 cd/m² brightness
  • 85% color gamut 

 

I have rx580 strix 

 

it is very cheap and I don't wanna miss this deal...

 

Do I buy it ? or I should look for a monitor with an HDMI port?

 

HELP

Everyone was a noob at the beginning, don't be discouraged by toxic trolls even if u lose 15 times in a row. Keep training and pushing yourself further and further, so u can show those sorry lots how it's done !

Be a supportive player, and make sure to reflect a good image of the game community you are a part of. 

Don't kick a player unless they willingly want to ruin your experience.

We are the gamer community, we should take care of each other !

use Displayport. it is the supirior port out of all of them (imo, and supported by stats)

It is superior to drive more bandwidth to the monitor, but if it capped at 1080p and 60hz, it would be the same.

 

For OP, the monitor supported all port that the gpu provide, so just pick one.

HDMI is cheap and universally used in tv also, so you may just already have one in your house.
