“What is the difference between using either this DVI (24 pin) to USB cable versus a VGA (15 pin) to USB cable to connect a laptop to a monitor?”

• It all depends on the monitor input. Most monitors starting in the mid 2000s started going to DVI standard and removed compatibility with the older VGA. But apparently VGA is still used for…things? My monitor has a DVI input, while my new video card only has DisplayPort output. If I only had HDMI output, I would have gone with a different converter. So it really all comes down to what you need to convert to.
