Hey there! I'm setting up dual monitors for the first time and could use some help with the cables. Should I connect my main monitor, which is 240Hz, using a DisplayPort cable and my second monitor, which is 100Hz, with an HDMI cable? Or would it be better to do it the other way around? Any advice would be appreciated!

Definitely use DisplayPort for your main monitor. The secondary one can be connected with any HDMI cable; the refresh rate is only 100Hz, so it won't really matter.
Using a DisplayPort for your 240Hz main monitor and HDMI for your 100Hz secondary monitor is a solid choice! If your GPU supports it and both monitors have DisplayPort, then using DP for both is also an option.
Thanks for the tip!
