Good cable but read on for details!

These cables look great and I had no idea there would be differences between a 1080p cable and a 1920x1200 monitor. Unfortunately, after a month, these cables were causing my displays to flicker. I thought my monitors were dying. After some searching, I noticed the monitor's resolution specification and decided to order a new cable. This solved the problem. So keep in mind that this cable is only suitable for monitors with 1080p or lower. It's a good cable, but its specification is inadequateโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice touch
Cons
  • Some little things

These cables are fine but one has been dented in multiple places

These cables are fine but one has been dented in multiple places although this does not affect function. These cables are because there is no locking mechanism for the display port. If you're using them in a three-monitor setup, I recommend purchasing a 10-foot cable. This will differ by a couple of inches, but unless your computer is at desk level, the 6-foot cables are too short. Or at least the one with the farthest monitor input would be too short for your computer to stand on the floorโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best of its kind
Cons
  • Protection

I bought this cable to connect an EVGA GeForce GTX 1050TI FTW to a monitor. However, the connector fits perfectly into the DisplayPort on the card as it doesn't have a locking mechanism like other cables, it was loose and could cause video distortion and "static" if moved even slightly. Thinking I had a defective cable I ordered an exact replacement from Revain and it had the same issue. I returned both and bought another cable with a locking connector. This works perfectly, the plug does notโ€ฆ

Pros
  • DVI Cable
Cons
  • Damaged

Comparison with Cablelera

We purchased several new PCs from one of our student labs and the new PCs came with DisplayPort connectors, not VGA, HDMI or DVI. We used to use DVI so I bought one of these adapter cables and a Cablelera DisplayPort to DVI cable (ZC2610MM-03) to compare. Monitors HP ZR2240W. We use them with a resolution of 1920 x 1080. No display problems with either cable. The RevainBasics cable feels a little less durable than the Cablelera but seems solid enough. The RevainBasics connectors and the cableโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Accessories and consumables
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Great cable, works well so here are some tips on choosing

RevainBasics cables are pretty reliable. Every PC has 1-3 rear monitor connections. You can use one of several technologies such as the legacy VGA, HDMI, DVI or display connector. The PC sends video through the ports wired to your monitor, which may be the same or different ports, to receive video/TV from your PC. So a conversion cable like this is good if you have different technologies at each end. Make sure you always know if the signal on the cable can only travel in one direction or inโ€ฆ

Pros
  • cables and connections
Cons
  • boring packaging
