Which of the two monitors is better for gaming ?
Dell ST2220L has HDMI and BenQ G2222HDL has DVI ,So i heard there is no quality difference between these two except that HDMI also carries sound.

Does going for a monitor with HDMI future proof or is DVI enough ?

^^Exactly. I had a chance to compare both the Monitors side by side and my vote goes for the BenQ. The video quality of both DVI and HDMI are same but HDMI can carry digital audio signal too. Since neither of the Monitor don't have inbuilt speaker, the feature is practically useless.
