    Hi, i am needing a DVI cable for an Xbox 360 to LCD monitor, i have been reccomended Lindy by a friend but was wondering if anyone else knew of any decent suppliers, i need a gold plated HDMI to DVI cable or i think a VGA cable would work to, they are about so £35.00 so if anyone knows of any cheaper options i would be very greatfull.

    Thanks in advance

    Gold plated cables are a con and do not give an better signal and/or picture quality.

    All-Cables is your best better for a real high quality cable at a good price.

    you need something like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Xbox-360-High-Definition-Cable/dp/B000AYYADE

    DO NOT buy the official one as its way over priced, i'm using a joytech one for my xbox cost around 12-15 on play.com ages ago but they seem to be out of stock on there at the moment. But as a rule of thumb pay no more than 15-20 for it.

    standard vga on both end cable wont work for the Op as it needs to connect to an xbox on one end and monitor on the other , so you will need an xbox specific one
