What is HDMI cables?

How efficient is DVI to HDMI convertor? What is its price and what is the price of good quality HDMI cables?

  • I have a Sparkle 9400GT graphics card and am planning to buy a Samsung LED 22" monitor. I have DVI-I port in my graphics card but no HDMI port. The monitor has HDMI port but no DVI port. So I want to use a converter for that.

  • Answer:

    efficiency is irrelevant. It is digital. It will either work or it won't. Monoprice.com sells $3 adapters to convert dvi to hdmi. Then just use an hdmi cable. They also sell a cable that goes dvi->hdmi with the converter built it. You won't find it much cheaper elsewhere. The quality is IMHO outstanding. Just a warning though, when they say premium cables, it means that they are THICK. http://www.monoprice.com/products/search.asp?spcDB=10231&spcWord=Video+Cables+-+%3Cb%3EHDMI+%26+DVI%3C%2Fb%3E&keyword=dvi%20hdmi%20cable EDIT: I've pointed many to that website and not one has been disappointed.
