Not sure if this is a totally dumb question but does the type of cable I use to hook my monitor (BenqRL2455HM) up to my computer (HP prodesk) have any effect on netplay lag? eg should I stay away from hdmi cables, stick to dvi, etc.?

Thanks

No, it won't make a difference in terms of lag or image quality, at least between DVI, HDMI and Displayport. I'd generally recommend displayport as the physical connector is the most convenient (locks in place, no screws) in my opinion.
