Title is a bit funny, yeah. This has probably been posted a thousand times before.
But I think I found a modern equivalent for people with these cards that for whatever reason, original owners of these cards either never sell the cable with the card, they throw it away for whatever reason, they wanna make more money selling it separately, I don't know. What I DO know is that there's a bunch of us who have Voodoo 1 and 2 cards without these cables that probably want one.
Well, I found something on Amazon and today ordered two. I'm going to try them out on my systems here at home and report back. They claim to be 1-foot-long, which is exactly how long the ONE good cable I got with a Diamond Monster 3D II card, so it should work really well. It has a Male-to-Female build, so I won't have to use any gender-changers. Both ends have screws, so they'll work screwing directly into the cards without having to modify them or buy new connecting hardware or any of that other nonsense. Hopefully, just a clean build. The cable looks thick like mine, like it's shielded.
Am I allowed to post links to places like Amazon? I'm going to attempt to here so other people can try to get some of these or at least look at the entry for it and the pictures. If I'm breaking a rule, just tell me and I'll pull the link down from the post.

My apologies if this exact item has already been posted about on this forum. It is not my intention to double-post. I'm just hopeful these will work perfectly.
