Worked for me in the computer accessories and peripherals department

I bought a used HP T 730 thin client from a popular auction site, but I wasn't aware that the machine only comes with display port. That was a shame as the purpose of the machine is to use it both as a virtual machine and as a pi-hole server. So, without a monitor with DP ports, setting it up was a hassle. After setting it up, I was able to just cover it up. I found this device at Revain and it solved the problem perfectly without resorting to an expensive adapter. Worked well enough for my…

Passive, not active and may not work. It depends

It didn't work on my system when I tried to use it as a triple monitor output. When I used this alone with another monitor it worked fine, but not when I mixed and matched display port, DVI port and HDMI port. The reason is that it is a passive device and not a more expensive active device. If you're only using two monitors on your computer it will probably work fine, but if you're trying to get three monitors to work you'll probably need an active device since the chipset in the computer may…

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Will post later

I would give this unit five stars except that 1) I bought it on July 23, 2016 and 2) it broke on October 1, 2016. I have found that my monitor is extremely sensitive to static electricity unlike my other two monitors (without this adapter). Tonight it didn't work at all. I checked the connectors on the back of the monitor, everything was fine. Then I checked the connection to the graphics card (NVidia GTX 1060), for which I used this adapter. Unfortunately, when I tried to remove the adapter…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons

Does what it's supposed to do (most of the time) Update: DO NOT BUY

Update: DO NOT BUY! I was wrong. This will scramble the displayed image by limiting it to "ycbr420 limited range" instead of the full RGB range. The "low" HDMI setting is really only meant to compensate for this and doesn't really "fix" the problem as it just darkens/brightens EVERYTHING to mimic it. My Rift keeps turning on and off because of this and my TV frequently switches to 1080P with that OVER of color glitches. It will do what you expect, except: 1. My TV (but not my Rift) when…

Pros
  • Note: some compatible devices may take a few seconds to display the video. The portable adapter connects a DisplayPort (DP, DP++, DisplayPort++) equipped laptop or desktop computer to an HDTV, monitor or projector with HDMI input; Requires HDMI cable (sold separately)
Cons
  • No paint required

This is a very basic cable that does exactly what it says on the tin. Full-size Displayport for HDMI 4K. Works great, cheap price, 5 stars. I just opened it up and tried it out on my HP business laptop (Elitebook) which (annoyingly) has Displayport instead of HDMI. Why? Nobody knows. Okay, that's because the HDMI Consortium charges $0.05 per HDMI port and Displayport is free. INDEED? Anyway I got this adapter, tried it on my 4K TV and it works great. It was about half the price of the cheapest…

Pros
  • Suitable for extended desktop or mirror displays. Support from Rankie
Cons
  • is too dumb

Looks good. Everything else was boring. The product didn't pass the HD signal correctly to new HD monitors (I'm using brand new LG - 4 monitors on two desktops, one is a graphics workstation, the other is a DAW. The hardware of these two systems is almost identical and they were installed at the same time a few years ago. The graphics card was upgraded to the Nvidia GTX 970 early last year, which is now considered the MOtR for more expensive professional graphics cards. With the first system…

Pros
  • Note: This is DP HDMI, NOT USB HDMI. Transmits HD audio and video from your computer to HDTV for video streaming or gaming; Supports video resolutions up to 4K and uncompressed 7.1, 5.1 or 2 channels of digital audio
Cons
  • Can be damaged

Video and audio have been great running these two great weeks. After they broke I tried using the warranty for a replacement and they requested a video but all I could show is that this is where my screen is plugged in (shows a dead screen) and it should be it connected to the DP-to-HDMI adapter look what works. I bought a white 1080 as a backup after ordering two black adapters to begin with. I started using the white adapter after two black adapters broke one after the other after two weeks…

Pros
  • The latched DisplayPort connector provides a secure connection with a release button that must be pressed before disconnection.
Cons
  • Update available
