Review: Great Mini DisplayPort to VGA Active Adapter - I recently purchased the AMD Radeon 7850 to do some casual gaming and was notably intrigued by the AMD Eyefinity software, which can span a game across 3 or more monitors. So I bought two older monitors off of eBay for cheap that were the same size and resolution of my current one. Since the graphics card had only one DVI port to use the included DVI-VGA adapter, I had to utilize the two Mini DisplayPorts. I was not hesitant to try out this adapter when it had the best reviews and most other Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapters were almost the same price as the monitors themselves! I was not disappointed. When first taking these adapters out of their packages, I inspected the build quality and was quite pleased. The cable connections and port felt quite sturdy, and although it does not matter so much to me since it's not going to move much from the back of my desktop, this is something a laptop user would look for. Hook-up was easy since the Mini DisplayPort slipped in nicely and locked tightly in place, while the VGA end slipped on with ease and the screws fit in perfectly. The computer immediately recognized the new monitors and I was able to begin working with them immediately. Setup could not have been easier. I immediately started the AMD Eyefinity software and that was all that was needed to begin gaming across all three monitors. 4032x1024 resolution looks spectacular and these adapters work perfectly for this use. Many people have complained about off-brand adapters not delivering the best quality or have problems with the video output or even getting the monitors to recognize in the first place. That was not the case with these two. I am pleased overall with the convenience, quality, and durability of these Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapters. If I ever need computer cables or adapters again, Cable Matters will be the first place I look.
Review: Does a great job! Worth the price and perfromance... - ...and it is simple to use. Works on my SP2 and is easy to travel with. On some TVs it cuts off some of the out edge of the screen size, but I believe this is a video card issues, not this Display port, because it works flawlessly on EVERY computer monitor I have plugged it into. The plastic may seem light, causing other reviews to call it "cheap," but it is solidly built like any peripheral device you pick up and hold at a BB store.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Great, Full Resolution
*by M***T on August 14, 2014*

Bought this to hook up my ultra book to the projectors at work. The first time I hooked it up the screen flickered and the color was off, second time everything worked fine and has been working fine for over 2 dozen training sessions. It displays 1920x1080 resolution as well (it can probably go higher but this is the max resolution of my monitors). The quality is very good, the cable isn't flimsy and the connectors are molded well. I didn't try too hard, but I wasn't able to screw in the VGA connector to this, not much of a big deal as its not a permanent installation for me.
