bought this for 99 cents on ebay
will it work

also does it plug into a laptop that doesnt have those screw holes

It will look like absolute horseshit compared to a half decent VGA cable. But it will work.

have you tried turning it on and off again

maybe ill buy the amazon basics one then

does it plug into a laptop that doesnt have those screw holes

>amazon basics
>half decent

don't listen to him buy the 99 cent one . same fucking thing

that looks absolutely disgusting

They all fit into those. The screws are just pushed back. You dont even need to screw them in.

Shielded blue cables are the decent ones.

>same fucking thing
Not true in the case of VGA, because it's analog. Unshielded and otherwise poor cables can decrease signal quality.

>gold-plated connectors and heavy 28 AWG bare copper conductors (no copper clad steel)
>foil-and-braid shielding and integrated dual ferrite cores on the VGA wire to reduce crosstalk, suppress noise, and help prevent EMI and RFI

hmmm rlly makes me think
maybe ill increase my budget to 2$ and pray its magically better

Anything direct from china is gonna be trash.

thanks for lookin out for me

who knows maybe one day ill go for the amazon basics

i could only dream

maybe ill be looking at shit quality for years to come without knowing it

i already dropped the 99 cent bomb

>that shit cable

hey tin thats a nice cable man

could you imagine having a gold plated amazon basics vga though

its like driving a mercedes

next to a 2002 camry

nope, you need the screw holes in order to ground the signal

No. There's certain consumer goods that aren't ICs that are just fine.
Sdcards (if you don't need class 1), usb cables (that are

one came with a freesync monitor I got, they're practically throwing them away

>will it work
probably
>does it work without screw holes
yes

If you're connecting to an 800x600 projector or something, cable quality isn't really a concern. You will definitely notice at 1920x1080, but still doable.

>copper clad steel
cca*

youre using vga, its going to look like ass regardless. just use the fucking cable.

shut the fuck up.

How young do you have to be to be mystified by a VGA cable?
