The best solution is to find a DVI-to-VGA cable, such as this...

Hello,

Are you using the monitor's native resolution? Which monitor is it? Also, it's literally an HDMI-to-VGA or an HDMI-to-HDMI connection and you are using the VGA setting from the monitor's menu? Because you cannot have an HDMI-to-VGA adapter unless it's an active one.

first of all thanks for reply,
i m using Philips 203v LED monitor, its VGA default, using PC, GPU: Nvidia gtx 760 2gb, i was using DVI to VGA Small Converter, which was working perfectly without any problem, the reason i wanted to change to other connector, because the CPU where i having with low space behind, the VGA wire and adapter taking space from behind, what i though, is what if i using wire connector, to solve the space problem, but when i tried to use HDMI to VGA converter i found, there is shadow of text (someone said it is pixel alignment, i dont know its true or not)
can you tell me perfect setting/connector for it?
thanks in advance.

The best solution is to find a DVI-to-VGA cable, such as this:

Or a 90 deg. angle adapter:

Any conversion from HDMI to VGA and viceversa needs an active adapter which degrades the signal (HDMI signal is digital, while the VGA signal is analogic), that's why you don't have a good image quality. It is also a possibility that your HDMI-to-VGA adapter is a low quality one, or the HDMI cable is too sharply bended.
