Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort

Guys, sorry this is a bit of a dumb question but I'm just about to push the button on a Sapphire 5970 and one of their active dp to dvi adapters from Overclockers.

I know the 5970 is a mini display port and the adapter is a normal displayport, can anyone recommend which cable to use between the two?

Thanks
Fred
 
I'd like to be able to use DisplayPort but when I use the mini-DisplayPort adapter that came with my 5970 I get flickering, which makes it unusable. I have a Dell U2410, which has a native DisplayPort socket, so I don't understand why it doesn't work. It seems stupid to have to buy an active adapter, especially when they're so expensive.
