Default Best way to setup?

I have a Samsung 2233BW, which has one VGA and one DVI input. I currently have my crappy laptop plugged into the VGA, and my Xbox plugged into my DVI. I am ordering a new setup today though, with a 5770, so I will have much better performance from my comp. I am trying to figure what setup will give me the best performance. Should I keep things the same (free option since I already have all the necessary cables), or switch the Xbox to the VGA by buying an adapter, and plugging my comp into the DVI? I just want to get the best picture possible on both. I wish this thing had more inputs and HDMI, but I got it cheap, so oh well. Thanks for any help.

I tried looking up the difference in quality of vga vs dvi, but I couldn't find much. All I've read is that the difference used to be noticeable, but not negligible anymore due to better processing.
