How to Cleanly Pair Old Monitors with New Computers

I'm a pair of old (2014) Dell monitors with VGA and DVI inputs - a new (2018) Dell PC with a pair of display ports and a VGA video output. So how do I connect for a dual monitor setup? These Display Port to DVI converter cables are just what you need to achieve that without bulky built-in cable converters. Plug and play couldn't be easier with them and I can easily reach the monitor's maximum display settings of 1920 x 1200. Before you buy, remember that they are not bi-directional, which means they must come from the computer screen port. Connects to the DVI connector on the monitor. Not the other way around as I read some of the reviews that people complained about.

Pros
  • INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE - The DisplayPort to DVI converter supports resolutions up to 1920x1080@60Hz (1080p Full HD), including 720p, 1600x1200, 1280x1024 for HD monitors or projectors; Gold-plated DisplayPort connector resists corrosion and abrasion and improves signal transmission quality; Molded strain relief improves cable durability
Cons
  • Can't remember
