Belkin Cable: Belkin Pro Series HDDB15 Male to Male VGA Monitor Signal Replacement Cable 2m

It takes a bit of cheek to charge even three quid for this. Using it to connect my PC to my LCD monitor produces a picture with the worst ghosting I've ever seen. Jiggling the cable about, switching off nearby appliances, offering sacrifices to Greek gods, none help.

The trouble is, every cable on the market seems to have at least one bad review attached to it, so it's hard to know which to buy. Whatever the answer, it isn't this.

Given the mixed reviews (either very good or very bad)on this site for this product, I was unsure what I was going to receive for £3.28! Worry not, the picture quality achieved through this cable is extremely good.
I've linked my laptop up to my LCD TV and have found no ghosting or other interference affecting the picture quality.
Take a risk & be glad you did!

Causes Bad Ghosting posted on 2008-07-02

I bought this cable as a straight replacement for an existing high quality VGA cable (which was on loan to me).
Swapping over the cables and making no other changes to my PC, I got bad ghosting on my screen (19" 1280x1024 LCD screen).
Comparing the cables, this Belkin Pro Series cable is much thinner and has no inductor EMI shielding "lump in the cable".
My advice is don't buy this if you have other monitors near by as it isn't well shielded and will give poor results.
