Now's the time to invest in PC cables as Amazon's Basics range is even cheaper

pcgamer.com:

Recently I took the plunge on not one, not two, but four extra long cables for my PC. I was in a bit of a pinch: I had to figure out a way to connect my dual monitors to my PC while using an adjustable height standing desk, as my meter-and-a-bit cables weren't close to cutting it. If I set my desk too high, I'd risk ripping my graphics card and motherboard ports right off the darn PC altogether.

Ultimately, I caved and ordered two extra long Amazon Basics DisplayPort cables and two extra long USB Type-B to Type-A cables. They didn't cost me a huge amount, however, if I had waited a little longer, I could've saved a little extra. Most of Amazon's Basic cables are on sale right now for Prime Early Access.

If you've been thinking you could make your own life a little easier with a longer cable run or want to shake up your whole PC setup, now's the time to do it. From DisplayPort and HDMI cables, to optical connectors, you can save a dollar or two with each purchase right now. That adds up if you're bulk buying a few like I was. Though similarly the last things I want to spend much money on are cables—they're just a bit boring, you know?

Amazon Basics DisplayPort 1.4 cable | 6 feet | 4K@120Hz | $14.20$10.49 at Amazon (save $3.71)(opens in new tab) One of the bigger savings on Amazon's Basics range is on this 6-foot DisplayPort cable. This is rated to a bandwidth of 32.4Gbps, which is enough for 4K at high refresh rates and even 8K. I can attest to the quality of the cable generally: It's super well built, and you don't have to fiddle with the usual DisplayPort clips like you would most others. The only thing to consider is the width of the cable itself. These cables are thick.
