Quiet PC HDMI to DVI-D Cable 2m length Dual-Link compatible QPC-HDMI-DVI-2M

This HDMI to DVI cable can be essential if you wish to use an older DVI-only monitor with a PC which doesn't have a DVI output. It can also be used in reverse if you have a monitor with a HDMI input but a PC with only a DVI output. The cable has fully moulded connectors with gold-plated pins for maximum reliability and signal transfer. It is 2 metres long which is the most popular monitor cable length.
Please note that using DVI or HDMI will give a noticeably better picture quality than using an older-style 15-way D-Sub VGA cable; which is the other popular method of connecting legacy monitors to PCs or vice-versa.
As an alternative to this cable; it is possible to use a HDMI to DVI adapter. However; we have experienced problems with using such adapters where they work fine at lower resolutions but when the resolution is increased; (e.g. Windows is started); only a black screen is shown. This is likely to be due to a degradation of the signal quality as it passes through the adapter and because the HDMI and DVI protocols are digital in nature; they either 'work or they don't'. As a result; we recommend using a specifically-designed cable like this one rather than an adapter.
