U2412M, "hdmi to dvi" cable

Hi!

I want to buy a new monitor to my laptop.

My laptop is this:  VPCF22M1E

And a monitor that i want to buy is this:  Dell 24" UltraSharp U2412M 

So is it possible to connect my laptop to this monitor with  "hdmi to dvi" cable? I want to be sure that  the connection works properly and get max. 1920x1200 resolution. (Not 1920x1080) I have read some difficulties to do this from internet so am i going to have any?

OR

Is it possible to connect my laptop to this monitor  with "hdmi to dvi" cable?: Dell 23'' UltraSharp U2312HM

Thank you!
