Hi,

Where can I buy vesa certified cables please?

Club3d says theirs is vesa certified

these are all DP/VESA certified HBR3 cables. i am using the one from club3d

https://www.amazon.sg/gp/product/B0767F5DNR/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_2?smid=ARPIJN329XQ0D&psc=1

https://www.amazon.sg/Startech-com-...Q640RYMPK91&psc=1&refRID=1Y1475WSTQ640RYMPK91

https://www.amazon.sg/Accell-1-4-VE...Q640RYMPK91&psc=1&refRID=1Y1475WSTQ640RYMPK91

https://www.amazon.sg/gp/product/B07HL336L2/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ARPIJN329XQ0D&psc=1

wait what. i understand if you buy those cheap monitor, they probably won't even give you a dp cable. but if you spend 400+, i'm quite sure the dp they provide is vesa certified :s11:

i bought my monitors from Acer. they gave me both HDMI and DP cables but non of them are VESA certified.

You don't need VESA Certified Cables unless you want to use
4K @ 120 Hz, UWQHD @ 144 Hz, WQHD @165 Hz, FullHD @ 240 Hz
and your existing Cable cannot do it.

I'm using Dell DP cables and it does its job.
They are going on Carousell around $15-20.

I just use ATZ cables, works as it should and fast delivery because local stocks

+1 for ATZ cables. Support local :s13:. The price for standard length matches OP's budget as well.

Even though I don't think they are VESA-certified, it's genuine DP 1.4 specification as confirmed by monitor OSD. Your monitor will be able to detect the actual DP specification (and bandwidth).

TS is trying to run UWQHD @ 144 Hz and has problem doing so.

which is why i recommend him to only buy VESA/DP certified HBR3 cables. which both his options of Vention and Ugreen are not.

Yes ATZ is very good. Next is Ugreen for me. Bought Vention but the casing is not as robust as the others.

genuine dp1.4 is useless if the cable's bandwidth cannot support the monitor's requirements.

I think 3440x1440 should be WQHD. Ultra wide should be something like those 49 inch ones.

nope.. 2560 x 1440p are referred to as WQHD or QHD..

3440 x 1440p and above are considered UWQHD already.

Aiya don't keep recommend random cable. You will have issue if its not HBR3 Vesa certified even if its from reputable brand.
