Only ever get the official one, The others are usually crap. The GC RGB scart cable has some extra electronic wizadry which nobody seems to get right.
Azzo.

Got the official one here, it seems alot at £20, but it is well worth it. On any TV larger than 14" the composite cable supplied with the GC is useless. Many other cheaper cables are described as RGB but every one I found had had dubious reviews and often didn't actually do RGB.

If you are up for trying 3rd party, this one gets good reviews on the website and is only £2.90 before P&P:
