This one has a panel mount - http://www.ebay.com/itm/121347589764 so it can be fitted to piece of metal/plastic.
Not sure about cable thickness and size of plastic around connector, but I'm ready to cut this. Buy one, still wait for delivery.

I know this will require case modification but I think an HDMI Keystone and a 1ft HDMI cable would work best. I purchased this combination:

The question for me is, do I remove the RF Modulator and tie the keystone to the logic board or do I modify the back of the top part of the case. Decisions, decisions.....
Thanks.
Seems to me we are over-discussing an issue which might point the only weak point of the engineering of this masterpiece board.
I think this is normal until someone confirms a good, working solution and points to the exact parts used to get there.
Until that happens, everyone is kind of experimenting and a few are bound to buy the wrong stuff.
Asking a lot of questions before buying a bunch of cables and adapters is cheaper than having to re-buy stuff, ey? 😁

My point is: what a strange idea to have integrated an hdmi plug and not a classic 10 pin connector like all graphic cards have and on which it would have been easier to install a ribbon cable and an interface like kipper2k Indivision 1200 RF modulator replacement board...
But I'm sure someone will come with a neat solution someday, maybe 3D printed. I have a design idea but not the software to make it.
Cable quality becomes very important for TMDS video signals especially at higher resolutions and frame rates that's why Kipper2K doesn't yet sell his ribbon cable based adapter for the Vampire 2 with any guarantees. Until the graphics core is finished and lots of testing has been done he can't be sure at what clock rates it will work reliably.
If there is a vampire 1200 version made, where is it going to be announced here on amibay for pre-order or direct from the apollo core website??
There's another item that would probably help some Vampire 2 owners: a microSD extension cable. Just thinking, you would easily exchange cards if you could mount something like this on the case: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-62cm-M...MAAOSwQItT21PV
(not related to the seller in anyway btw)
I would suggest people wait for the kipper2k hdmi cable. It works really well so far, just needs to be validated at higher screen modes, and it fits extremely well :)

Thats it ! 😛
Thanks kipper2k !!!!

... With some spacers under the PCB I'm sure you can centre it even better in the RF modulator case hole... 😉
