StarTech DVI-D to DisplayPort Adapter/Converter, 1920x1200, USB (DVI2DP2)

Prior to finding this, thought I would have to look for a used DVI monitor to use my old 2005 PowerMac G5 again... was surprised such a product existed. Ordered this to connect to a KOORUI 34-inch Curved Ultrawide WQHD Gaming Monitor using the display port; had to use an Apple 5v USB adapter to get it to work. Pixel aspect ratio wise, it looks a little off, but it still works and it beats looking for/buying a monitor right now considering how much prices went up for electronics. Maybe when prices drop (crossed-fingers), there will be an update. Monitor suggestions welcomed.

Worked out of the box as designed. Worked with my DP KVM Switch.

I got this to connect my 2006 Mac Mini to a DisplayPort KVM; the Mini has built-in DVI. This unit seamlessly converts the signal and outputs it over a standard DisplayPort cable to either a monitor, or to the KVM. It's powered by USB, so make sure you have a USB port on your computer you can devote to that. For me, this solved the problem nicely and works great.

It gets the job done but the USB power cord is way too short. Needs to be twice as long.

I often have trouble connecting old signal sources like VGA or in this case DVI to new monitors that do not have this plug this adapter will let you use a modern monitor with old computer devices. I used this thing 2K and 60 HZ refresh on a DisplayPort monitor from a DVId signal source and it works on a 4K compatible DisplayPort KVM I'm very happy.

Bought this sometime in 2020 but this thing has been on it's way out for a while. I was actually hoping it was my monitor so I had an excuse to upgrade it, but finally this thing has crapped out. It started with a fuzzy picture, then at some point it stopped sending enough of a signal to my monitor to let it know something was happening. I have a startech KVM as well so I can connect my work laptop and my desktop up to the same dual monitor mouse/kb and in order for that monitor to show anything, I would have to flip it back to my laptop to get the monitor to turn on, then flip it back to my desktop, then the picture would show. If the monitor was off when I powered on my desktop, the one monitor would not wake up. And then now, it has died and won't come back on at all. Star tech seems to be one of the bigger names in a lot of these niche products, but seems their quality is a little shaky, thats the feeling I get. Going to try another brand that costs about half as much, can't really get worse.

This unit sorts out the annoying issue of connecting a Computer with a Display Port to a Monitor with one! I don't know why this is an issue as you and connect a Display Port (in a computer) to a Monitor with HDMI but not the other way around! And while you can buy a cable with the two ends it only works one way (And most store people don't know that it only works one way!). So in short, GREAT PRODUCT - Does what it's supposed to do quickly and easily! Still no idea why this isn't something that all Computer/Electronics stores don't have on the shelf though.

Like the title states, I'm connecting a monitor with DisplayPort to an older graphics card (GTX 970) that has DVI. I have three displays (24", 1080p, all have DP and HDMI, no DVI) all connected to the 970 that has 1x DP, 1x HDMI, and 1x DVI. Primary display is connected to DP, since it's G-Sync & 144 Hz. Second display is connected via HDMI (60 Hz, non-G-Sync display). Third display is using this adapter to connect to the remaining DVI port on the computer. Working well at 1080p/60Hz, which is the stated max spec (bought this knowing that, no surprises here). Unfortunately, since this is an active adapter, it uses up a USB port. Does come with a USB extension cable, very useful, but not needed for my setup. Overall, works well for what I needed, lots of adapters out there that are passive and work the other way around (connecting a DVI monitor to a DP GPU). Be sure to verify which way your data flow is going and get the right adapter!

As part of a convoluted multi-PC, multi-monitor setup for my wife, this cable helped me hook up her GeForce 760 to a DisplayPort monitor.

Kann ich nur empfehlen! Funktioniert auch oder gerade mit meinem Mac Pro. Ich habe auf dem Gerät zwei Betriebssysteme installiert, High Sierra und Catalina, bei beiden funktioniert der Adapter.
