Rocketfish™ - DVI-to-HDMI Adapter - Silver/Gold

I have no issues with video & audio quality, the quality is great. The only issue is the size of the adapter body. You can not put another HDMI or USB on its side, it does not fit. That’s why I gave 4 stars.

This Rocketfish™ -DVI-to-HDMI Adapter - Silver/Gold will greatly aid me in connecting our older monitor to a new computer which has a different connection from the older pcs. The high quality of the Rocketfish™ - DVI-to-HDMI Adapter should last the life of the pc even if the monitor is older!

Needed an adapter for an old monitor. The HDMI end doesn’t leave a whole lot of room on the sides, so if your ports are tight, you may find that this adapter blocks them a bit. That said, this adapter worked great on my Asus laptop - now I’m primed and ready to work from home!

So it does exactly what it is supposed to. Make sure you know what you are looking for. This adapter works for when you have a monitor with a male DVI out that you want to convert to a male HMDI out. The triangular shape of the adapter will likely block any adjacent USB ports, so if that is important, you will need to buy an HDMI extender cable (female input to male output.) For this reason, I have deducted a star, as the only reason for the shape of this adapter is sytlistic.

Great solution for our dual monitor connection issue we came across on my sons PC. Worked as as expected, however make sure you have enough clearance to plug the adapter into a monitor, if that's your use for it. We didn't have enough space to plug it in due to the monitors back design. Luckily I had a spare hdmi angle adjustable adapter so we could plug that into the monitor and position it so we could plug the adapter to that. So long story short, great product and good price.

The reason I purchased this item was because I had an older Dell computer that did not have HDMI ports and I wanted to connect it to an older Sony flat-screen through the HDMI ports of the TV. After getting the item I could not find the AVI cable to run from the computer to the TV and had to return the adapter. I purchased a DVI cable with a HDMI on one end and made the desired connection. The joke was really on me as I later found the DVI cable I had used to connect the computer to a regular monitor so I could have used this adapter (which cost less than the cable) rather than getting the DVI cable. Oh well...live and learn.

My oldest was needing this for his computer and he is satisfied with it.

So, I ended up ordering a male to male 6ft, instead of using my old monitor DVI + this adapter. But that doesn't take away from the fact that this works, and is made very well. This thing will last you forever. It's a female DVI to male HDMI. So if you had an older monitor or whatever that had a DVI cord but only an HDMI input, get this adapter. Nothing else needed, that easy.
