StarTech.com DVIVGAMFBK DVI to VGA Cable Adapter - Black - M/F - DVI-I to VGA Converter Adapter

Pros: I like Star-Tech stuff most of the time

Cons: Beware of the difference between DVI-I (analog) and DVD-D (digital). This adapter is for analog. My laptop dock is DVI-D, I learned the hard way. DVI-D is missing the 4 extra pins around the larger prong. If you have to connect a digital DVI_D to vga, you need the much more expensive active converter. DVI2VGAE

Overall Review: The description could have been better regarding this, for people like me who forgot that there are different flavors of DVI out there that won't interchange. I'm sharing dual monitors between a desktop and laptop dock, and the desktop uses the DVI inputs on the monitors. VGA is all that's left for the laptop. The Dell dock had one vga for monitor 2. But for monitor 1, must use the dvi-d output. Was looking to use a VGA cable between. Ordered the active converter instead. Samsung has a new 24" out with display-port & DVI duals, but the other specs aren't as good as what I already have.

Pros: works perfectly

Cons: n/a

Overall Review: if you have a VGA monitor and your gpu has a DVI port this should be a route for you as it did me

Pros: -Good packaging. Not something you see on small orders normally. -Fit's perfectly on all my DVI-I ports. Wasn't bent or misshapen at all!

Cons: -None so far.

Overall Review: - 5$ and good quality. The knobs have good grip and aren't the stiff type that barely turn. This is good quality.

Pros: Gold plated pins. Solid construction. Tight seating.

Cons: None noted.

Overall Review: Needed so the Dell Optiplex 9020 could throw a video to one of the monitors. Worked like a charm.

Overall Review: Four extra pins are located around the blade... Does not fit into a standard DVI socket...

Pros: Does what it says and doesn't do anything it shouldn't.

Cons: nothing to dislike.

Pros: It is quality and from using it on a different built, it works great.

Cons: Nothing that I could find

Overall Review: Make sure that you need a DVI-I connector and not a DVI-D, because, being an idiot, I bought this for a DVI-D conversion not realizing it, however I have since been able to save a bit of money by using it on a different built.

Pros: Greater than average quality Low price

Cons: None
