I usually buy cables from AmazonBasic and they’re always of good quality.

So I have bad news to report. I have NOT been able to successfully run the Valve Index with extension cables.
I had the Vive Pro headset running FINE with the following setup
Like I said this setup was working fine withe the Vive Pro.
With the Valve Index (which uses DP on BOTH sides), I tried the following configurations:
Configuration 1:
This results in NO image at all. It even crashes Steam VR! (some error message about enabling direct mode...). I have tried multiple refresh rate including 90Hz with the same result
Configuration 2:
This time there is an image, BUT if you look at black areas you clearly see "sparkles" (like glitter) which clearly shows there is some degradation and/or noise. And it is only a 6Ft cable (which is too short for my setup but wanted to try it anyway).
So I am really bummed that the latest and greatest and expensive VR device REQUIRES you to be plugged into your PC directly and given the fact that the cable is just big enough for a 3mx3m area, that is quite frustrating... Supposedly the new base stations supports bigger play areas but I am not sure how this is possible since the cable wouldn't be long enough, unless your PC is inside the play area...
As long you find a DisplayPort cable that is VESA certified, you should be good
