Transfers 4k 60Hz perfectly from my GPU

For some reason, my GPU doesn't have any HDMI slots, just a display port. I wanted to connect my new GPU to my new OLED TV so I could try playing games on it. So I went to Amazon and first bought a basic DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and gave it a try. Well, to say I was disappointed would be an understatement. The connection was slow, they got disconnected and the full video was lost for more than 5 seconds at a time. That's when I realized that you really need a good converter because it's like a little computer in itself. So I scoured the web again and found this one that says it supports 4k 120hz over HDMI. I was a bit suspicious at first as the price was so cheap compared to other upscale ones. But it also wasn't as cheap as the $8 I got before that went straight into the bin. So I pulled the trigger and figured if that doesn't work I'll just send it back (Cheers, Amazon). Luckily I was pleasantly surprised. I immediately got a great signal over no less than 15ft HDMI cable (Amazon branded HDMI cable). I get perfect 4k 60hz (my Oled only supports 60hz). No interruptions, the signal is perfect and now I'm happy as a clam! Amazon. The Displayport connector snaps securely into place, and the HDMI connector is snug and fits well. The whole setup is plug and play and has been running for countless hours now without any issues streaming video from my gaming desktop to my OLED TV. It does exactly what it says on the tin, with no mess or fuss!

Pros
  • to my OLED TV.
