VGA Leads and Quality- Advice

[retro]

Keep it short, and keep away from Maplin unless you want to be ripped off!

Buy online, or from a reputable local computer dealer. Should cost you around £10-15.

I would go with CPC ;-)

Try monoprice.com . High quality cables for dirt cheap. I actually just ordered 2 VGA cables, one for my 360, the other for my laptop, and for both cables after shipping i only paid about $13.00 USD.

EDIT: and also, when i get paid later this week, i plan on buying some 1/4" audio cables ( for my guitar and amp and such) from them.

Not everyone lives in the USA, you know.

Does anyone else have any recommendations? All the leads I find look much of a much, similar to what I already have. I don't want to keep spending £10 a time to be disappointed..

Then go to Maplin or PC World. They may rip you off, but if it doesn't work, you can take it back and say "Your salesman said this would be good, but it's crap!" ;-)

Got one- chuffed. Its even sharper than the previous one, didn't think that possible- you can see the screens own imperfections. You can see the screen refreshing ever so slightly but I belive that just the screen and I remember that from every other computers it;s been used on so yeah, I'm chuffed :)

Bought this one:

Theres still a tiny bit when my stereo is loud, I guess since it's so close. Maybe it;s my laptop's chipset or whatever. *Shrugs* pleased enough now, cheers for all the help =)
