HTPC - What DVI to HDMI cable do you use?

Post by Jancelot »

I want to hook my PC up to my HDTV and have only found the $120 Monster cable. Is there a cheaper cable to be had? My TV only has an HDMI port. This is mostly a test as I don't have tuner cards, etc. Eventually I will build a full blown HTPC. Thanks!

Check the link I posted in the other DVI thread for cheaper cables.

My HDTV has a DVI input on it but it was a pain for people to get the display to show up right on the screen going DVI -DVI. If you have an ATI card they came out with a DVI to Component adapter for their video cards and it works great with my model TV.

I do have an ATI and that's exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks!
