What is the best component video cable available?

I am going to be picking up a new component video cable with rca connectors and I need some opinions from my audiogon friends. What is your favorite component video calbe regardless of cost? I am considering Audioquest
YIQ-5, Acoustic Zen Silver Byte component, and Silver Serpent reference cable. Are there any others that I should be looking into? Thanks in advance.

I would not waste much money on component video cables, all the new gear has or will have Digital Video Interface (DVI cable) to pass hi-rez. Just my opinion of course.

I hear there is a Sherpa high up in the himilayas, he has this ability to trap the lifeforce of thier ancestral Long Haired Yaks into thier component video cables. Apparently they are the true holy grail of Component Video Cables, equaled by none.

However, this is a mere rumor, for no Audiophile who has ventured there to meet this mystical sherpa have ever returned.

There goes Slappy, "Yak"ing once again! Would a Short Haired Yak be a suitable second?

Seriously though, what ia a DVI cable? More info please, Sogood51! Thanks.
