Both, heathens dont bother and they reap what they sow.
Hahaha, I can’t disagree, even as a heathen.
As others have said, depends on how permanent something is
Both. If there’s a screw, I’m tightening it, baby.
Pro tip: It’s a lot easier f you twist both knobs at the same time using the same motion as opening a bottle cap.
Jesus Christ, both!! 😆 But only finger tight. Sod you bastards who get the screwdrivers out! That’s overkill. 😁
When I used them, I screwed both in usually.
if I HAVE to use vga, and its only being used for 1 computer, than both, else none if im only using it for temporary reason , none.
Both, three rotations after the threads catch.
One or none bears the risk of the connector coming out crooked and bending the pins, causing a potential alignment issue on the next connection and bending them further.
A school computer lab with a bunch of grubby-handed students touching and licking and who knows what to every surface? Yes, VGA cables get screwed down.
Context kind of matters for me, but if I’m screwing any in, it’s both of them.
My monitors are on a swivel bar, and plug into the underside. Those get screwed completely in if the cable has screws. But on the desktop, since it doesn’t really move and I’ve never yanked a cable, they’re usually left loose.
I sure wish my external HDDs had screw in ports. Those things come loose if there’s a change in air pressure.
My current job, we test products with these cables, we are required to screw in both when plugging it in, so both.
It depends.
For my work computer, I screw them in tight, both on the monitor and the DP/VGA adapter.
For stationary devices (like overhead projectors) and extension cords, I screw them in, but not very tight.
For classroom computers, I only screw them in on the monitor and leave them unscrewed on the computer. Students can’t keep their legs calm and often snag the cables. I prefer to let the connectors harmlessly disconnect instead of damaging the graphics card or motherboard.
Hand tight, then torque wrench, 7-inch pounds.
Neither, and I never once had the cable fall out. Just imagine the countless seconds I saved from not screwing and unscrewing.
I just use HDMI or DP
DP
BBC?
no, BNC
