A video graphics array (vga) connector is a three-row 15-pin DE-15 connector

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a proprietary audio/video interface for transmitting uncompressed video data and compressed or uncompressed digital audio data from a HDMI-compliant source device, such as a display controller, to a compatible computer monitor, video projector, digital television, or digital audio device. HDMI is a digital replacement for analog video standards.

VGA is an analogue signal.

HDMI is a high speed serial port.

Why do some GPUs come with mini HDMI not full HDMI

 

[Wayne Wofford]

VGA and HDMI are interface standards used for cables that connect devices — such as laptop computers and DVD players — to a display, like a TV, computer monitor or projector.
VGA is an older standard that carries only a video signal. HDMI is the default cable standard for newer electronic devices, such as Blu-Ray players or LED TVs. HDMI can carry both digital video and audio signals, all while encrypting data with HDCP.
The video quality attained with a VGA cable is noticeably worse when compared to that of HDMI. Even so, HDMI may be phased out soon, as USB 3.1's versatile Type-C connector has the potential to replace the HDMI standard.
