Do VGA cables use twisted pairs?

I'm about to embark in a journey whose end will be a Naomi system in a pc case. As most of you know the Naomi outputs a high res VGA signal... For easy access to this connection I will need to run a small extention cable from the board output to the outside of the case.

Do you recommend that I use a small male to female extention cable and somehow mount that to the case.

Or, would it be ok for me to cut the extention cable down to the length I need and solder on a female connector? Do you think I would lose much picture quality/clarity by soldering on my own connector? Would I induce crosstalk?

I think that AmanoJacu has used VGA on his SG before.

I would recomend using shielded cable to get to from the Naomi to the DB-15-HD connector....

I'm pretty sure that Jameco has punched PC expansion brackets for DB-15-HD connectors.
