Das hier tuts genauso, und kostet nur 6,99€.

I also couldn't get the recommended HDMI extension cables to work. What ended up working for me was an HDMI repeater with a standard 10 foot Amazon HDMI cable.

Amazon Basics do huge HDMI cables and they work great.
Standard
Braided
Both under $10.
I run a Pro with 4K HDR with one of these.

Sorry for pic quality! There's a light in the way XD. I used a 10ft cable extension, command strip hooks, zip ties, and a dog leash to make my Oculus cord retractable!

Purchased items(US):

• Dog leash (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LCECNES/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

I bought a Vive Link Box to use as a signal/power booster in the middle, and it works great. This cured all my dropouts and audio glitches, as well as giving my system a Bluetooth radio.

This setup works great:

1. Vive Link Box
   
2. Vive Link Box Power Supply
   
3. 12 ft Power cable extension for Vive Link Box
   
4. 10 ft USB 3.0 extension cable
   
5. 10 ft Amazon Basics HDMI cable
   
6. Wire wrap to keep everything tidy
   
   Make sure you power cycle the Vive Link Box whenever you plug or unplug anything into it to for it to reinitialize and detect the headset.
   
   I really wish there was a more elegant solution, but so far this works the best for me.

Since you didn't tell us which exact MicroCenter location you've got, I am not able to maybe suggest a few more parts to get from them locally. Some parts also may be out of stock.

But I decided to go a bunch lower in terms of budget compared to /u/Lolmuhhhhhhh 's great suggestion.

CS:GO / LoL are not demanding games at all and even this system is "overkill" for it, but hey. It's a very good system.

I'll provide you with my standard list of videos to help you understand why I suggest these parts.
I'll also give you a couple of great guides to help you build the PC.

  Guides
  

  
  ---
  
  Now before you have a look at all these guides. The best guide in most cases will always be your MANUAL. Some manuals are garbage, but most of them are more than good enough to be able to help figure out most problems.
  
  

• How to build an Intel 115x socket PC?
  This is my personal favorite because it goes in depth, but still keeps the video relatively short.
  It also got great camera work so you are able to follow all the steps very well.
  I would suggest to install the aftermarket CPU cooler right away, then you don't have to clean the thermal paste.
  I decided to skip the start of the video. The reason being that the video is posted on 17th of May 2013, he gives the rationale of his selected parts at the start. This is a very long time ago, so the parts are very old, so no need to hear this out. But building a PC is still pretty much the same. No drastic changes.
  There are a lot of different build guides on the internet, but I really like this one. It's easy to follow.
  
  
• How to install a 115x CPU?
  Very simple and easy to follow guide again.
  
• How to install thermal compound?
  The temperature difference between the best and the "worst" thermal compound is a couple degrees Celsius. The temperature difference between applying thermal compound one way or an other.. is 0 degrees.
  Be careful though! The only way that the temperature will rise is when you don't put enough. So it needs to have enough, but too much can cause problems as well. So don't go overkill either!
  Thermal compound helps with the contact of the cooler + the CPU. They both have microscopically small gaps, which the thermal compound fills up to let the heat get too the heatsink.
  
• How to install Windows 8(.1) or 10 from an USB drive?
  You have to download "media creation tool" which is located at the bottom of the page (blue button). Run that program with a 4GB+ USB flash drive plugged into a PC. Then follow the simple steps and the program will make the USB drive bootable. After that all you have to do is build the PC and boot from that USB drive to install Windows.
  
• How to set up your SSD & HDD?
  This video is another older video, but it works pretty much the same in Win 8/10.
  
• How to use Ninite?
  This video explains it very well, as well as their recommendations. For security I advise to only get Avira (if you don't mind to get an add every day; if you do mind - just use Microsoft Defender) & Malwarebytes. If you want to pay for an anti-virus; Webroot! Light weight; very high detection rate.
  
  

  Hope you like it and If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
  

Anywhere that sells TV or computer cables will have HDMI. You can even find them in many drug stores (very limited selection, but still). Here's one on Amazon. You'll probably want at least that length so you can set the laptop somewhere, but REALLY long HDMI cables can be finicky.

I have an Odyssey+ and these are what I have been using for about 6 months and I have had no problems:
Vive Link
10ft HDMI
10ft USB 3.0
12ft Power Supply Adapter
Power Supply

you might want to check out this new and relatively unknown store

I use these 10' cables to extend the link box and have had zero issues. The Amazon basics HDMI is pretty good quality and I make sure to plug the Cable Matters USB 3.0 wire into a 2.0 port.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014I8T0YQ/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_apip_UqC38H59ci4DL

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HSS9KJY/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_apip_IaA2Y3O6wb2iK

I have this same tv and I was having the same problem with a 12 ft cord (best I could get was 4K at 30hz)

Got a 10ft cord from Amazon and that fixed the issue this cord

If you do go down that route you might have to try several different cables to get them to work it seems to be specific to people's Motherboard and GPU. For me, 980ti, this USB 3.0, HDMI and HDMI Repeater worked. Regardless of what you choose definitely pick up a HDMI Repeater or a HDMI to DVI dongle, it seems to be the key factor to get extensions to work for a bunch of peeps.

Both of these work fine with my Samsung Odyssey:

Using this for HDMI connection:

How are you connecting it? My T440s with base graphics runs my ultrawide like a champ with a MDP -> HDMI adapter. I used one of the HDMI adapters and an HDMI cable that specifically advertise compatibility with ultrawide resolutions, but I suspect any newish HDMI cable and adapter would work.

​

FWIW this is the adapter I got and this is the hdmi cable

Sorry I missed you earlier, here's what I used to get the tower discretely away in the corner and set up the triple monitor setup:

• 10' 3.5mm to RCA cable (your extension cord may need to vary depending on what you use for speakers)
  
  
• 4x usb M/F extension cord 10' (These are for plugging in my keyboard, mouse, phone connection, and a spare for usb sticks without having to plug into the tower)
  
  
• 3x hdmi cable 10' (for plugging in the monitors, be sure to check your connection options as your graphics card / cards may need a different connection)
  
  
• Vivo Triple Monitor Mount ( This is the trickiest part. For me to mount 3 heavy 27" BenQ monitors, this was a relatively inexpensive option. The stand is well built, and looks and moves well, but the weight of the monitors is difficult to mount without any sagging. Also, 27" is the absolute max size this mount will work for, and even then my viewing angles are a bit lacking. I would recommend Locktek's EXCELLENT mounts for neutralizing this issue, but they are vastly more expensive. Weight wont be an issue though. For me, the issue was not a big deal so I didn't splurge on a pricier mount.
  
  
• Cable management sleeve (so that you can tuck away all those cords neatly)
  
  After that, you can have all peripherals at your fingertips and tuck the tower away into a corner. If your space is carpeted (and even if its not), be sure to keep the tower slightly elevated off the ground to allow for good air circulation.
  
  Definitely not dogma but that's what I've been using, and it works well thus far. Be sure not to skimp on the length of your cords, when your hiding it it will need to snake around a bit under the desk.
  
  Hope that helps!

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B014I8T0YQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

USB Via USB 3 3m passive extender . Can't remember the brand I bought but amazon basics ones are amazing quality. If they had been available when I ordered I would have got one of these. (3m passive cables are unreliable for sensors, but seem to work fine with my headset, prob because of the lower bandwidth required).

https://www.amazon.co.uk/AmazonBasics-Male-Female-Extension-Cable/dp/B00NH12O5I/ref=sr_1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1493135898&sr=1-2&keywords=3m+usb+3+extension+cable

I have this sound bar, but the X900F tv, and both Dolby Vision and Atmos work with my AppleTV 4K so your setup should work. I’m using the AmazonBasics High-Speed 4K HDMI Cable.

Other than trying different cables, ensure that the cable plugged into the tv is going into a port that supports all features. On the X900F this is HDMI 3, it might be similar on the 950.

Edit: I should mention that I’m also using ARC and pass through on the sound bar (i.e. the same configuration that I believe you’re using).

I use these in the 10 ft length. I was in the exact situation as your husband, and ran the longer cables from my pc along the floor/trim of my den to the door to the living room and command stripped it to the trim so that the cables were some what wife approved. The hmd cables were long enough already that when I plug it into the box I would be able to have plenty of play space in the living room.

I can't remember off the top of my head the details but I found a post on reddit where someone made a chart for all of the approved cables to do this kind of thing, and I think at 15 ft or maybe 20 ft you needed to buy a higher quality cable to ensure no loss of picture.

I used these:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014I8T0YQ
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HSS9KJY
about $15 for both

Nope to be fair they are 10ft. These are the exact ones I ordered and they work fine:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00NH12O5I/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1


Edit: Though looking at the current prices of those items, the 25ft HDMI cable is less than £9

I've tested a couple of different HDMI cables and this is the one I'm using: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014I8T0YQ/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'm stumped. Thanks again for your help, it's a real head scratcher.

I think about 5 feet? I'm not sure, but I bought longer ones, 10 feet, off of Amazon. Now it's long enough that I can pull the system out right next to me when I play and the controller length isn't an issue anymore, plus I can hit reset on the system without having to get up and walk to the system.

Proven working on this and this.

Hi guys, i have a samsung UE49KS7500UXXC, and when I turn uhd color mode in hdmi 1 where it connects the pro ps4, the screen is all black and back to normal again and again, this happens right after turning on the uhd color mode, or a few hours later (and never If I turn it off, turn it off is also the only way to stop the black screen cycle), my guess is that this happens because of the hdmi cable, so I'm going to buy a new one because I need a 3 meter cable.
So I'm in doubt on which one to buy, I need a cable that supports hdr, my first choice was AmazonBasics (and I really liked it) -https://www.amazon.co.uk/AmazonBasics-High-Speed-HDMI-2-0-Cable/dp/B014I8T0YQ/ref=sr_1_1?srs=1624982031&ie=UTF8&qid=1481497598&sr=8-1&keywords=amazonbasics%2Bhdmi&th=1
But I read that I need a 2.0a or 2.0b and amazonbasics just says 2.0 and does not specify whether it is compatible with hdr or not.

What cable do you recommend for hdr?

Sy my english and if this is a newbie question

I know it’s sucks on Nintendo’s part, but luckily Amazon basics solve so many of these issues cheaply:

AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Cable, 10 Feet, 1-Pack https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014I8T0YQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_4CW4Bb68B25H6

Very true, but Amazon also sells AmazonBasics HDMI cables which are super cheap, pretty good quality and HDMI 2.0 spec:
