Review: Works with no problem - Works perfect
Review: Good quality and low price - Good quality and works well at converting from digital to analog output.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with no problem
*by I***N on September 7, 2025*

Works perfect

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality and low price
*by R***Y on September 14, 2015*

Good quality and works well at converting from digital to analog output. New video card did not have a vga outout or even a DVIa for my analog tv input and i couldnt use my sound card out on the hdmi so my only option was an adapter to get a vga signal and this works perfectly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, but not perfect for CRT gaming
*by E***E on June 17, 2025*

This is a very competent adapter that should work well if you have a monitor that only goes up to 1600x1200@60Hz or lower, but it will not go beyond that. I strongly recommend the extra bit for a StarTech DP2VGAHD20 if you have a monitor that can take higher bandwidths. Pros: - Switches resolutions quickly with no distortion - No major noise in the image - Doesn't cut out while using it - Working at the following resolutions: - 1600x1200@60Hz - 1200x900@100Hz - 1024x768@115Hz - 512x480@60Hz (good for SNES emulation) Cons: - Some resolutions are blurrier than my native output - Not working resolutions: (which are compatible with a GPU with VGA out) - 1920x1440@60Hz - 1600x1200@75Hz
