K, so its like this. I just dropped $55.00 on a pretty nice S-Video cable for my cab, BUT im using an ATI All In Wonder card, which means that it has no direct s-video output, but a little adapter with 3 cords (s-video, sound, and rca jack). This 3 way adapter plugs into my ATI card with some 8 pin connection wire, which means that my S-Video has to travel through this (very thin wire), then travel through my expensive new s-video cable. Will this lose quality? Should I just use the default cable that came with my card? Does having this expensive wire help at all?? The only 2 things I can thing of are 1. Get another video card (AGAIN!) and 2. Find a high quality gold-plated adapter that hooks up to my 8 pin ATI card and at the other end have a gold-plated s-video jack? Can anyone help, this cab ive been working on is 1 problem after another, im sure you all know what im talking about :(
THANKS
