you need to look at the pictures in that auction again.
That monitor pulls 2.5 amps @ 12v dc.
If you want it to turn on/off with the pc, then using a molex hdd connector will work. As you know, the yellow wire is 12v, the red is 5v and the blacks are grounds.
Simply buy a molex power splitter that will have the male side you need, and solder in 2 wires the length you need. Solder a barrel connector to the other end. Center positive on the barrel conn.
There are more than enough amps available on the 12 volt rail to power that monitor without taking away from the pc, even a power hog.
I made this one for Planar's 12.1" touch monitor. Works great.
You still have the ability to power the monitor on/off with the power button, and power is cut when the pc is off.
