Some cable companies sell such a monster for $35, but I got it for $12... Originally, since I am an Comp. Eng., I *hot* wired my I*M VGA card to the multiscan and found out all about the RGB signals, so when I got my Amy - I tested out the monitor output (I don't suggest this with your Amy or multiscan) by sticking in loose wires. Finally I got the right connections and then I asked a friend about a real cable. I have a Sony Multiscan and this cable should work with (disclaimer) most multisync monitors with the same 9-pin RGB configuration. Such a monitor blows away the A1084! Worth the bucks! Caio!
