Solution ThatVietGuy Jul 8, 2017 1967275544 : ThatVietGuy : Do you mean a power cable from the PSU of your computer? No, monitors have their own power supply and the get supplied by your wall socket. HDMI cables are usually 3-6ft long. So, the monitor comes with a power cable? Also thanks for answering the HDMI cable question. Correct. Monitors plug into the wall, as I said.

SkyNetRising Titan Jan 4, 2016 32,685 4,794 126,640 Jul 8, 2017 #5 Of course - every monitor requires power. And there is no "typical" length for HDMI cables. You take whatever length you need - 1m, 1.5m, 2m, 3m, 5m, 7m .. up to 15m. Longer cables will require signal amplification. Upvote 0 Downvote
