Try it and see for yourself to see if you notice a difference.

I personally haven't compared HDMI and DP directly enough to have a solid opinion. But from my very brief testing in the past, I think HDMI was better, I can't explain as to how or why though. I think mouse movement just felt better on HDMI.
