BlueRigger DVI to DVI Cable 3FT (High Resolution 2560x1600, DVI-D Cable 24+1 Dual Link, Gold Plated) – DVI Cables for Gaming, HDTV Monitors, Projectors, Graphics/Video Cards

When I saw the photo of the cable online, I was put off by what appeared to be a baby blue colored plasticky looking cable. What I received was much better. The cable connectors actually have a metallic blue color, and they are all metal! None of that cheap plastic or rubber coated stuff; these are the real deal. The connectors feel like quality components, cool to the touch, solid feeling metal pieces with a beautiful finish. When I plugged the cable in, it had a very snug, secure fit to my video card and monitor. I have never had a DVI cable that fit so snugly, that I really didn't need to use the screw down connectors but I did anyways. The cable is not flimsy, and not ridiculously thick and stiff; it's just right. The picture quality looks exactly as I expect, so the cable works as advertised. I am very satisfied with this cable, as I am with all of my previous BlueRigger purchases. Their HDMI cables are very nice and reasonably priced as well.

Great cable, fits perfectly. Connections are solid and secure, compatible with many PC models too.

The cable clamshell is nicely constructed of metal (a rarity), and small - without extra protrusions that could get in the way of adjacent plugs. I like the metallic blue colour and understated labelling - but its not normally going to be visible anyway. The cable is shorter (3ft) than the excessive lengths often seen in the past, which is fine for most installations - without the extra length getting in the way. The price is ridiculously low compared to prices I was seeing in stores for Single Link DVI-D cables, while I was trying (vainly) to find a full dual link DVI-D cable (required to drive larger/higher definition/faster refresh monitors). It IS missing the old analog C1 to C5 signals that DVI-I or DVI-A would have, but you would have to have a very old monitor to require them (and an adapter), and wouldn't be shopping for a Dual Link cable in that case. It can be used in place of DVI-D (single link) as dual link includes all those pins.- and you may as well as there is no downside to using dual link in place of single link, especially at this price. I bought a couple of these, and haven't had to look at or think about them for months - which is exactly what the case should be for quality cables.

This is the first BlueRigger brand cable I have ever purchased. The performance, appearence, and price of this cable is excellent. I like that it is easy to manipulate the position of the wire because it isn't ridiculously thick like some cables but it doesn't feel fragile either. It is just perfect. In the future I will continue buying BlueRigger cables for all my needs.

I needed the 25 feet cable run because I wanted to relocate my laptop (a Fujitsu E751 running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit) to another part of my office. From the laptop docking station, I was running dual monitors with SVGA and DVI outputs. The BlueRigger 25 feet DVI cable worked perfectly with no signal degradation at the longer run. Now, this part of the review deals with the SVGA cable, not from BlueRigger, but this may be helpful to others who run into the same problem I had. The 25' SVGA cable that I got from another Amazon vendor (Importer520 Blue Connectors) had problem achieving the native resolution of my Acer G246HL monitor. I had purchased two new Acer 24" monitors from Costco.com, and their concierge service spent over an hour with me, updating the monitor driver and checking everything else possible that could be causing the loss of resolution. The problem turned out to be the new 25' SVGA cable (not from BlueRigger). I didn't have a problem with the short 6' SVGA cable before. So in case anyone else decides to increase their SVGA cable run from a laptop docking station, be aware that different maker of the SVGA cable will make a difference. Before solving this loss of resolution problem, I also purchased a 25' SVGA cables from Fry's Electronics, and that cable would only achieve the native resolution (1920x1080) immediately after I plug the cable into the monitor. After shutting down and restarting the laptop, the laptop would not recognize the monitor make or model with the SVGA connection and would default to a lower generic monitor resolution. But when I unplugged this SVGA cable connector from the back of the monitor and re-plugged it in while the laptop is running, the laptop would then recognize the model and allow the native resolution. Very quirky. Finally, I bought another 25' SVGA cable from Cable Matters on Amazon, and that cable works fine and will recognize the monitor model and maintain the resolution after rebooting. Go figure.

Good quality. Works great!

It's an excellent cable at a great price. The most important aspect, of course, is that it works properly, which it does. No need to jiggle the connection or reef down on the attachment screws. The thumb screws themselves are plenty long (some are so short you have to resort to a screwdriver). The cable is firmly attached to the plug, and is nice and heavy duty. What makes this cable stand out is the lovely blue metal casing on the DVI connection itself. While 100% unnecessary, it looks and feels really nice. It's almost a shame you'll never see it once your monitor and computer are hooked up. Official seal of approval applied.

I bought these even though they were cheaper and didn't have any reviews for this length. The reviews for the shorter BlueRigger cables are basically This product rocks! I was worried the length might bring out any defects of the cheaper cable. This simply isn't the case. I'm running a three monitor rig and have the cables run ontop of the power cables from the monitor stand to the pc. Both the power and DVI cables are 15' long. Toward the computer side I have the cables wrapped in a gentle circle. If problems would occur, this would be where. I haven't had a single problem. NVidia Sli surround mode works without a flaw. I can't tell that these cables are any less quality. If anything I suspect they might be higher quality then what came with my Dell monitors. To top it all off, the ends are a nice metal painted blue. Basically, what I'm trying to say. Thank you BlueRigger for a quality product at a great price! I'm very glad I went with BlueRigger. I'll upload some pictures.

Ce câble est de très bonne qualité aussi bien au niveau des connecteur que de la transmission de donnée qui se fait sans problème

Cool cool

Works

impressive quality. great price. and prime-eligible. highly recommended. (I used them to connect a 2008 Mac Pro with Dell 24 inch monitors at 1920x1200)

Excellent cables. They work and the blue accents on the ends look great. Very satisfied with this purchase.
