I love that I can play my PS3 on my 20′ Dell monitor. It looks beautiful!! Great Product. High quality.

4 Stars Works great, great price
Eforcity HDMI-F to DVI-M Video Adaptor with Gold Contacts

I bought this adapter to connect my PC to my TV. I gave it 4 stars because the screws are too small and difficult to tighten. Other than that, it works great. Don’t waste your money on some brand name adapter when this product works fine for just a couple bucks (the same goes for HDMI cables).

5 Stars works effortlessly, right after plugging it in.
didnt have to change settings on pc or tv. worked great. havent tested it in game yet. ill update if anything bad happens…

1 Star Bad, incomplete description.
How difficult would it be to include Single Link in the description? I can see in the photo now that it has only three rows of pins. But I have a cable I don’t need. I ordered the dual-link cable from a different vendor.

5 Stars dvi-dual link
I ordered this and got a dvd-d cable. Worked great with my imac to my samsung monitor. Very nice cable.

5 Stars 18-Pin (Standard )DVI cables-BargainCell–A Critical review
I was confused initially as to what I actually needed when I borrowed a family’s monitor to attach to my MacBook Pro.

There seems to be several kinds of DVI cables available. Apple supplies a VGA-DVI adapter that would attach to the supplied VGA cable that comes with the monitor. I searched for hours here on Amazon as well as Google as to what was actually needed. I counted the pins and made an educated guess that the plug advertised here was the one that was needed, despite the seemingly legitimate reviewer complaints that the vendor (or Amazon?) was misrepresenting the product.

The product sold here is an 18-pin, 6′, DVI cable (male to male), but the headpiece (the end pieces) is a cream-color not black. Nevertheless, it fits in perfectly to my MacBook Pro and to the external Compaq WF 1907 19″ monitor.

5 Stars this is just DVI cable
these cable were way cheaper than the one that i had in mind to buy from tigerdirect.com, so thats why i bought these cables but i have no idea why that joker that counted the pin on the dvi cable. along enough our video card and monitor say DVi or even DVI output then you can use the cable. now if it only has vga on either on then no way in hell this would work for you.

this review has been brought to you by the “computer-stooge”.

5 Stars DVI cable
I purchased this cable to compliment my new 22in widescreen acer LCD. There was an immediate difference in clarity and color compared to the old vga cables. I am very happy with this purchase.

5 Stars Fantastic cable!
I use this cable to connect my PC to my Samsung 32″ LCD HDTV…and boy, is the picture quality something to behold!

The image quality is really quite fantastic and this cable has worked rather admirably. I required 15′ because of the distance between my PC and TV, but I can see no image distortion/ghosting/other problems of any kind.

I purchased this cable about 2.5 months ago, and have had no problems with it since! I should also make it a point to mention that the price of the cable is very reasonable!

If you are at all interested in using your HDTV for a monitor, definitely consider buying this cable. The quality of DVI, as opposed to VGA, is very much superior, in my opinion.

5 Stars It didn’t work for me…
Eh… my computer apparently doesn’t support the connection… but, for the price, you can’t find this anywhere else.
