I have HDMI to VGA cable

Although there's a tendency to call anything that goes between two
connectors a "cable" these days (such as "power cable" for laptops),
HDMI to VGA won't be what _I_ would call a "cable" - it'll have to
have some electronics in it. (And consume power, though that might be
little enough to use the supply on the cable.)

Possibly call them cable adapters.


DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort have the same video signal with the exception
of HDMI includes audio channels and DisplayPort includes ultra-high
definition resolutions. VGA is a different signal and requires
conversion and is a major downgrade. My video card has 3 DisplayPorts
and one HDMI and since I am running dual monitors without DisplayPorts I
went with DisplayPorts to DVI cables. I don't use audio with crappy
monitor speakers. BTW 16:9 aspect is not 1920X1200 but 1920X1080
