    How much long VGA cable I can use to connect PC to Television

    Advert.
    Hi,

    I have my computer and tv (a big screen LED tv) in same room but their location can't be changed. I am willing to connect. I have in past connected my laptop to this TV to watch movies using 1 mtr HDMI cable and it worked well. But my PC doesn't have any HDMI port, it only has VGA (analog) port. So I am planning to connect it to TV using Analog port .

    Can I use just long enough cable to connect to PC ?
    I think it is about 15 ft distance from my TV to PC. Will that work and where can I buy long enough cable because regular computer stores locally don't have that long vga cables.

    You can use long enough. It is just current flowing through wire, so increase in length means loss of signal. But its not significant to couple of feet like 50 ft or so.

    As per another website :

    "VGA is an analog signal and so as distance increases the quality will decrease. A lot of factors can determine the maximum cable length, but for low resolutions (up to 800x600) you can reach 100 feet and beyond without too much trouble"

    So I suppose, just buy a good cable and you can use it without any trouble. Hopefully you have seen vga cables used in projectors , they are long enough.
