I buy cheap digital cables but expensive analogue cables ^^ Got a 10m HDMI cable here for £12 and its working pefectly even at 1080p 60hz & 24hz rather than spend like £50 on some super expensive EMP-resistant cable :P

Yeah, it's worth it with the analogue ones. With digital I tend to go cheap or the one just above the cheapest just to make sure.

OK thanks, I'm going down town today so I might pop in a PC shop.

Just an update, the seller is sending another cable to replace the faulty one... let's hope it works!

New one arrived and it's STILL blurry as if there's a motion blur on the page. :(

It's because it's a cheap cable. Mine does the same.

Mmk, what would a decent cable cost? In currys it cost £45 for the Belkin cable... no way am I paying that for a cable... sure it'll be top quality, but I just want an "Ok" quality.

1st looks like what I bought. The second looks good, I think I'll buy it...

N!ck, I checked on Play.com (cheaper than ebuyer) and they have the exact same one... but 2 out of 3 of the reviews were bad, saying it made their screens blurry. The recommended the 'blue' one, which I reckon is this...

Would that be any better?
