I just got a 21" monitor with BNC inputs and have received advice telling me
I should use a BNC cable with it for optimum performance.  I don't quite
understand how using a cable that goes from a standard 15-pin DSUB (vga)
connector on my video card (Matrox G400 MAX) to the BNC connectors on the
monitor could INCREASE the quality.   If it is still going through the DSUB
at the card, how can coming out the BNC connecters improve the quality?
