Review on Cable Matters Mini DisplayPort Black Accessories & Supplies by Ashley Karch

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Doesn't work with Wacom Cintiq

I ordered this cable to set up an awesome graphics card on a new PC. I needed to connect two monitors and a Wacom Cintiq tablet to an RTX 2060 graphics card with only 1 HDMI, 1 DVI and 1 DisplayPort. None of my monitors have DVI connectors, so I ordered this cable to connect the Cintiq to the card's DVI connector. That does not work. The tablet is not recognized by the PC. I then connected one of the monitors to the DVI port using the Revain Basics HDMI to DVI cable I had on hand and it worked. I ended up using an HDMI to Mini DisplayPort cable I had on hand to connect the Cintiq to the HDMI port previously occupied by the monitor, which had been switched to DVI. This also worked well. So HDMI-DVI works fine, but this mini-DisplayPort-DVI doesn't.

Pros
  • Fits many people
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish
