Just to tag along, the VGA signal is analog where DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort are digital

DVI had an analog variant as well. I'm obligated to say this because that cable compatibility confused the shit out of me at least once.

You had to check for pins above and below the wide "dash" shaped pin to know if it supported analog.
