Are DVI cables worth it?
 

Got a new monitor, didn't come with DVI cables. I am just using a converter right now for the analog cables instead.

So, is it worth getting unlazy and going out to get a pair of cables? There a noticeable difference?

There is a large difference from VGA -> DVI

There an 'In' brand of cables? Or are we talking about any el generico will do.

Cables are cables

But they aren't MONSTER CABLES!

But fair enough, I'll purchase a pair tonight. Hopefully Circuit City isn't closed yet.

try clicking on my link. geez.

But I don't want colored HDMI cables!

songohan is a ****ing retard

it's a catch 20

I'd buy cables from where iNVAR posted or from eBay.... Way cheaper than any retail store.

But I don't want to wait.

My card does HDMI through an adapter I'm going for that but I've been to lazy to order the 15' cable required.

I've been watching my pirated HD content through VGA with my laptop. It works good enough. My TV has VGA and not DVI for whatever reason.

You can spend $60 at a store, or you can spend $10 on Monoprice. Not a hard choice, IMO.

Wow. Didn't know they **** you that bad.

you were willing to NOT GET THEM AT ALL. i think you can wait a few days....

For instance, something I needed the other day:

$25.99
Dynex***174; - 4' Retractable USB A to Mini B 5-Pin Cable - DX-URAMB5

$0.80
For only $0.60 each when QTY 50+ purchased - USB A to mini-B 5pin cable - 3FT | USB 2.0 Cable - Mini-B Type

BUT ITS ONLY 3 FEET **** THAT IM GOING TO BEST BUY

See, now there's the catch 20. It's if I'm willing to pay the unlazy tax, basically. But I think I shall purchase from your store link this time, Invar.

I run dual monitors at work and one is DVI and the other is Analog. There is a clear difference but they both look good.

Oooh, dual monitors. Good idea. Guess it's best not to waste the old one.
