Dvi to Hdmi converter

[aCeFr3aK]

I am looking to buy a new monitor, i recently posted asking about which monitor to get.
I am looking to getting something bigger than a 24" but at or under 30". My complete max for price would be $400 dollars. But my question is this, i have a Visiontek 4870 512mb graphics card and it has 2 dvi ports. If i got a dvi to hdmi converter so it could run off hdmi would i loose quality running at full size or something?

here are the three choices so far

Im asking about the difference between using just a dvi cable from graphics to monitor or using a dvi to hdmi from graphics to monitor. Will the quality be different?

Wiki
Compatibility with DVI


A DVI-HDMI adapter


An HDMI-DVI adapter
A DVI signal is electrically compatible with an HDMI video signal; no signal conversion is required when an adapter or asymmetric cable is used, and consequently no loss in video quality occurs.[3] As such, HDMI is backward-compatible with Digital Visual Interface digital video (DVI-D or DVI-I, but not DVI-A) as used on modern computer monitors and graphics cards. This means that a DVI-D source can drive an HDMI monitor, or vice versa, by means of a suitable adapter or cable. However, the audio and remote-control features of HDMI will not be available unless the output supports HDMI via a DVI plug (e.g., ATI 3000-series and NVIDIA GTX 200-series video cards).[3] Additionally, not all devices with DVI input support High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). Without such support by the device, an HDCP-enabled signal source will suppress output and so prevent the device from receiving HDCP-protected content.[88] All HDMI devices must support sRGB encoding

Well all two of those monitors have 1920 X 1200 res and the last one has a 1920 X 1080 res.

I plan on gaming at those resolutions. I could have but i knew that post a new one asking about the quality would have gotten more attention then an older one (and it wasnt 20mins) that had different title then the question.
