HDMI cable

I am looking for an HDMI cable to run 15-20 ft from my computer and attach to the TV. I have I5 2500K, Asus P8Z68 board, 8GB Corsair memory, 1TB HDD, 750TX Corsair PSU. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I ordered one of these and have been very happy with it: 15ft Slim Series High Speed HDMI® Cable

Monoprice.com has really great prices on all sorts of cables.

Would it be okay to have a monitor and TV connected simultaneously to this board?

If there are enough ports for it, sure.

It has HDMI, DVI, and a display port. Just wanted to make sure it didn't overload it.

You can use them simultaneously. Video cards with multiple ports were designed to take this into account.

I don't have a separate video card. These are on board ports.
