Only difference is that HDMI carries over audio as well, picture quality is the same for both.

If you're a console player you may be lead to believe that HDMI is some magical-graphics-enhancing cable. HDMI can be used for audio and video at the same time, that's it's only advantage. Pretty sure HDMI can't support higher than 1920x1200 resolution aswell.
