I need about 10' of cord. It's going to a 120Hz Asus VG278 monitor. The one that came with it is a dual link DVI cord. Will any daul link DVI cord work?

Was thinking about this one, or this one.

My main concern is if it's compatible with a 120Hz LCD "gaming" monitor. IIRC I stuck a daul link DVI cable into a Viewsonic VX922 and it blew it up. This monitor it would be going to is less than 3 days old to me. So that's my main concern.

If plugging any cable into the monitor caused the monitor to blow up, there was a serious preexisting problem. Just to be safe, I probably wouldn't reuse the exact same cable though. Any of the 24 AWG Monoprice cables will be fine.
