## Description

Review: Reliable Adapter for Legacy Displays - I needed a way to connect an older DVI monitor to a newer workstation with only DisplayPort outputs, and the StarTech DP2DVIS adapter delivered exactly what I needed. It’s a true active converter, which means it works even with graphics cards that require active signal conversion—perfect for my multi-monitor setup using an AMD GPU. The build quality is solid, with a latching DisplayPort connector that clicks securely into place, and the DVI end supports screw-locking, so there’s no risk of accidental disconnection. I’m using it to drive a 1920x1200 display, and the image is sharp and stable with no flickering or signal drops. Setup was completely plug-and-play—no drivers, no fuss. It’s also compact enough to fit behind a monitor without adding cable clutter. ✅ Pros: Active conversion supports a wide range of GPUs and monitors Crisp resolution up to 1920x1200 @ 60Hz Latching DP connector and screw-lock DVI for secure connections No drivers or software needed Works with Windows, macOS, and Linux ⚠️ Cons: Slightly more expensive than passive adapters, but worth it for compatibility Short cable length (15cm) may require an extension in some setups
Review: Very Reliable - Better than the Sapphire Equivalent - I've been using this now for several weeks, and I've had none of the issues with intermittent connection that I was having from my Sapphire adapter. This item is plug & play and works like a dream. Why a Startech adapter should work better than the Sapphire item on a Sapphire graphics card (I'm using a Sapphire Radeon 6850HD), I have no idea, but it does. It's also on the AVI official supported adapters list. I now have my 3 screen Eyefinity setup working perfectly at last. Recommended.

### ⭐ Stopped working after just half a year of usage
*by N***. on 18 January 2016*

Bought this in June 2015 for use in a multi monitor setup with a 980TI. Worked for the most part for a months without any issue, but then started experiencing an intermittent issue when booting the machine up where the monitor this adapter was used for didn't come on. Found that unplugging and replugging the adapter back into the graphics card seemed to fix the issue for the session, which I wasn't particularly happy with, but it was less effort than actually replacing it. Anyway, this morning I tried to start my machine up and the monitor didn't come on. Tried the steps above as per usual, but it wasn't coming on. Switched cables around so check that it wasn't the graphics card port, but it still didn't come on. Using the DVI connection for now, but I've ordered another Sapphire active dvi to displayport adapter (http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00433C5Y4/ref=pe_385721_37986871_TE_item), the adapter my other monitor uses, which I've had for over 4 years and has worked without issue. I'd recommend anyone else considering buying this product to do the same.
