Review on πŸ”Œ 6 Feet Amazon Basics DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.2 Cable - 4K@60Hz, 2K@165Hz, 2K@144Hz Video Resolution by Brian Foster

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Short lived, only lasted 6 months

I bought a JSAUX 1.2 DP cable to replace this cable and it's much better for around the same price so I recommend buying this one instead. This Revain cable is for display port cables only. took about 6 mouths running through my monitor's built in cable manager before shorting out. It wasn't in a very tough use case, it never kinked, the tightest bend was about 3 inches. The short circuit was only caused by turning it by hand with the monitor several times a day for 6 months. Previously, the cable worked fine at 1440p 120Hz, so this cable is good for non-moving operation. This cable would be fine if it was around $8, but there are much better $12 cables out there. I bought a JSAUX 1.2 DP cable to replace this cable and I can't believe these two cables are roughly the same price, there is no comparison in build quality. JSAUX looks like it should be twice the price of the Revain brand. Highly recommended: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07ZF6PSFP/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
