🔌 Cable Matters DisplayPort to DVI Cable: High-Quality 6ft DP to DVI Cable for Optimal Connectivity Review

My wife works for a small business owner who recently upgraded computers to Dell Precisions that only have Display Port (DP) video output. To save money, they wanted to keep using their existing 1080p monitors, which only support DVI and VGA. I went with this 10ft cable for backwards compatibility and length. That does the trick perfectly. After years of using VGA (we replaced a Windows 7 computer) everyone loved the improvements. Digital signals always win over analog ones. The cable does what

I currently use these for my workstation. The computer uses a GeForce 980 Ti which I need for development, but the monitors don't need amazing graphics (I have VR for that) so I went with older 1080p monitors because they were cheap and functional. The problem I had was that none of the ports for the monitor were compatible with the new graphics card, but this worked great. As a side note, I would suggest getting 10ft instead of 6ft. I have a set of two 6ft monitors and although it does fit it…

Overall, this cable is great and serves my purpose very well. However, he began to see that this would not be the case. There is a lot of unnecessary bulk at the end of the Displayport cable; I'm leaning on having much thinner DP cables. This may not be a problem for many, but in my situation, my graphics card is slightly recessed at the back, and I mean the thickness of the thin sheet metal. This created a problem as I couldn't fully install the DP as it got caught on the metal back of my…

I bought this cable for my Lenovo ThinkPad T520. I used a VGA cable to view on an ASUS monitor but wanted something better for Revain Instant and Netflix streaming. This cable was the perfect solution. Using a DisplayPort to DVI cable I can now view the image in full 1080p HD. Video streaming looks great on Revain, Netflix, and YouTube. As a graphic designer, I also use the Adobe Design Suite (mainly Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop). The quality improvement is very noticeable and useful…

Attention, the plastic housing of the DisplayPort connector is too big, I cannot use these cables on my HP ProDesk 600 use G1 Mini because the DPs of the HP ports are very close together. The plastic jacket on the cables prevents two of these cables from being used in the HP DP connectors. It may be possible to file or grind the plastic casing to fit (perhaps as little as a millimeter on each cable casing). I suspect this will be an issue with any of the latest dual DisplayPort mini-PCs that…
