Well, well, well... after an agonisingly long wait my pc has finally been dispatched.

I shall miss this forum, it has provided me with entertainment and reassurance that I would see the light at the end of the tunnel.

However! Please would someone explain what ports/cables (whatever the technical term is) I should use with my pc? Do I use an HDMI, DP, VGA, etc? My GPU is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060.

In the email I received from PCS it had this photo, but I can't make out exactly what it means I can use.

Thank you.

EDIT: The pc is primarily for gaming if that helps...

You use Display port for any gaming monitor.

If it's not a gaming monitor or TV or into a multi channel AV receiver, then you'd use HDMI where audio is carried also.

The PC has two areas with graphics ports.... the motherboard and the GPU. The motherboard can't be used if you have a dedicated gpu (ie the 3060 in your build) and you need to use the GPU display outs as in the picture.

Ideally if your monitor has support for it I'd use a display port cable. I'ts like a rectangle but has the bottom right corner chopped off from memory. If not I'd go HDMI!
