    I know that some Video Cards have come with ones about
    16" long thereabouts. Anyone out there that has one?
    I may have one buried somewhere here, If i can find it
    I will let you know. Cost would be whatever shipping is.

    I'm pretty sure I have one somewhere - it's about 8 inches long if that helps - it originally came with a monitor/tv tuner where the tuner was a box which mounted on the back of the screen - it's effectively a pass-thru cable - speaking of which - didn't the OLD old voodoo cards have similarly short cables?

    Yes, those did. If he could get an old cable from one of those, that would be exactly what he needs.

    These would be what you're looking for. They're pricey but good quality.

    They'll do a custom cable if you're willing to pay.

    These guys carry their stuff in the UK but I don't see the cables on their website. Worth a call.

    How long do you need?
