I am going to go with five stars because the usage was just fine for its purpose. However, I do have an Aurora R11 with dual2080 gaming cards. In the top of line processor. So of course, I also have the top of the line millisecond refresh rate, and overall picture frame with the clear watch screen. So as far as capabilities go, it’s wonderful. The gold helps the connection and overall stays fitted to my computer HDM slot, sometimes even better than my $120 version. But the heat from which the computer gives during gaming isn’t as excellent and I still use the other cord.
