Plug and play for DVI cables

This adapter worked well with my Asus Maximus VIII Ranger motherboard - I use it to drive a DVI over DisplayPort monitor. No drivers are required as this is a passive adapter - I just plugged it in and it worked the first time. Now after using it for a few weeks I forgot it was even there. So as long as your device works with a passive adapter, this is a good buy for the price.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Not bad

DVI to DVI adapter Displayport

I bought this to change from my Geforce 1600 to my monitor. The DVI connector on the card was different than on the monitor. It works great but be aware that if you have this adapter you will need a DVI to DVI conversion cable. I thought my cable would fit but didn't think the cable I had was a standard cable and it was DVI. So I had to buy another cable. Spirit.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • alt

Exactly what I was looking for

I couldn't find the adapter I needed at any local store other than the incredibly overpriced "Monster Cable" adapter. It worked great and at a great price. Oh, and it worked better than the monster version I brought back because it's flexible. Revane explained that I needed twenty more words to complete this review, so read it now. It's an adapter, nothing more to say.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • No paint required

First time broken - super quick and easy replacement

First time sent broken. I reported this and got a replacement very quickly. The return was completely painless. I just had to put it in a little box. UPS came the next day with the label removed. The second worked great, just plug it in. Although the first one didn't work, I was so impressed with the response and resupply that I had to give this one 5 stars.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Security

Works as described: DVI cable

I bought this for my Lenovo laptop. That works fine. However, this is a passive adapter. This means that no more connection is added to the monitor from the laptop. This works great for me because I wanted to use two large monitors. I have VGA and DisplayPort output and I don't want to spend $100 on a docking station. I can use both, but the laptop LCD had to be disabled, which is fine with me as I don't need the laptop's small built-in LCD.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Very expensive

Great adapter for the price

Star Tech Digital Display Adapter to DVI Monitor arrived quickly and was exactly what I needed. All of the computers and monitors at work have both VGA and DVI plus for our two monitors. These are all ours or calls. But not this new computer I just got. It is VGA and digital display. This adapter has literally got me hooked. Worked great with my HP computer and View Sonic monitors. The price was better than most adapters I've seen online.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Cheap. does his job.

It is very important to read the description before buying. This is a passive adapter that allows you to connect a DVI monitor to a DisplayPort on your motherboard. As with any digital signal, this device either works or it doesn't - for the applications listed above, it works. A female thread is provided for a more reliable connection of the DVI cable. I found the lowest price for this item on Amazon so I bought it here. I'm using this on a NEC color monitor and the color management andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Something different

Not suitable for video cables

Please read this review completely before jumping to conclusions. This product didn't work for me. That's why I give it a low rating. That doesn't mean it doesn't work at all, it might work for other people but not for me. I ended up buying a new monitor with integrated DisplayPort and when I connected my laptop directly with a DisplayPort cable everything was fine but my old DVI monitor didn't work through this adapter. I checked and both monitors work fine with all connections, but thisโ€ฆ

  • Cool product

Simple adapter works as expected

I bought this adapter to replace another one I bought locally. Unfortunately the local purchase was an all in one adapter and didn't include a small piece of cable on that end and after a couple of weeks of using and moving my laptop it broke leading me to specifically look for an adapter to come with looking for a small cable to give me the flexibility. This adapter just works, plugged it into my Lenovo Dock. and my Samsung monitor and I had no issues, they just worked and had no issues forโ€ฆ

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Only available in black
