HDMI cable, avoid converting if you can, always avoid it if you can. there can be a lot of problems doing so.

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

They mean, don't go from DVI to HDMI or HDMI to DisplayPort.  It can mess up the signals usually so you should always try to pair them up properly like HDMI to HDMI DisplayPort to DisplayPort.  (Not sure about DisplayPort to mDisplayPort.  I think that should be fine)
