VGA Extension

[edgates]

Hi, I've got a new monitor that I'd like to plug into my PC, but the cable doesn't stretch to the tower.

What would I need to extend it? I have another VGA cable, if that's of any use. I'd prefer it to be from Maplin, so there's a chance that I could get it from town.

Thanks.

The spare VGA Cable probably has 2 male connectors, for an extender you'd need a male and a female, but have a look anyway.

Yeah you'd probably need a VGA Extension however if your monitor is using DVI it'll be no use.

You can get adaptors to connect 2 VGA cables together, like one comes with the Xbox 360 VGA cable.
