Hey Guys, I just got 2 new Asus 24 inch 1080p 60hz monitor, i was about to plug them in when i saw that they only have VGA, DVI and HDMI as connector. But my gtx 970 only as 1 hdmi, 3 dvi and 1 DVI.

What would be the best way to plug in the monitors? I would prefer HDMI as I would be able to use my hdmi switch pluged in my laptop.

I was thinking of using a dp to hdmi cable and a hdmi cable. Or should i use 2 dp to hdmi?

And is there any advantage of using a dp to hdmi cable over a DP to hdmi adapter (one that you need your own hdmi cable)
