I need to connect

SAPPHIRE HD 5670 512MB GDDR5 PCIE VGA

To my monitor

BenQ v2410 LED, which have HDMI 1.3.

Can i use the cable Amazon.in: Buy HDMI TO HDMI CABLE Online at Low Prices in India | HDMI Computer Reviews & Ratings ?

I am replacing the cable because i do plan to get a new GPU and most new GPU need HDMI or DVI, HDMI is the way to go ?

The image shown in the link is that of vga to hdmi which won't work. You need hdmi to hdmi cable. Any cheap hdmi cable will work, but branded ones are recommended.

HDMI 1.3 - hope the 1.3 won't make much difference.

Thank you, placed order on ebay

I received the cable and it is working fine. Good build quality. It is flat cable. I'm not sure if it is original Sony, it has some holograms, but all the descriptions are in chinese. Mostly these are imported from China at cheap price.

I have a problem with this cable. When there is electrical disturbance, for example USP relay change, the monitor go black for a second (like switched off) and turn on back. May be i need to change the cable routing, so it pick up less electrical disturbance. This rarely happens, but when it happen it is annoying.

Check the PC for proper earth. It can happen if there is leakage current in the PC body

Grave digging old thread to update.

Last 2 years i lived with this cable. Put a 2nd earth to solve the problem (monitor go off when switch turned on/electrical interference). I was even thinking of getting electrician last day to rewrite thinking it is a wiring problem.

I did even contacted local PC support, they said they can't fix as they them self face the problem..

Last day i ordered cable

This solved the problem.

Unlike previous cable, this is very short, coaxial cable, other was flat cable. Length is just fine for connecting my PC and monitor.
