Which kind of connection to go from PC to TV (50 ft cable distance)

looks like I'd be looking at around $60. Is there a big quality difference between VGA and HDMI that I'd notice coming from the computer to the TV? I bought the 15ft dvi to HDMI cable from monoprice for around $8; I was hoping for a solution that would be around the $25 range. ~J
