Lost ASUS monitor power cable in move, where to get a replacement?

I can't find the cable, and it doesn't use the traditional power cables like for PCs, printers, monitors.

On the back, it says:

I looked online but they're like $50+


I'm heading out to a Canada Computer to see if they can help.

Yeah that's definitely an adapter you're missing there (power supply) not just a "cable". Many laptop adapters are 19.5V but that plug looks different than most laptops so you might need one with some "universal" tips and one that matches. The reason they put the power supply on the outside of many monitors these days is 'cause it makes the monitor thinner/slimmer. It's probably also cheaper that way. However it's a pain should you damage or lose the supply or should it break.

Anyway I see some on eBay for like $10-15, Amazon (.com) for $15-25. Strangely none of them show the tip but they are available for various Asus models. You'd think that Asus would use the same tip/plug for ever monitor but I'm not sure.
