Review
★★★★★ Glad I bought this one Verified Purchase So far so good. This is my first DisplayPort experience. I bought this to connect my Dell desktop PC (with a newly installed Geforce GT 1030 video card) to my new LG monitor which only has HDMI and DisplayPort. I read another review that recommends getting a different cable with locks, but after installing this cable I'm not worried about a loose connection problem. It took a good thrust from me to get the cable into the slot, and I even heard a nice "click" securing it into place.   ★★★★★ Thick Boi Verified Purchase This cable is very thick. It does the job though and that's all I ask in a product. The color is also not very nice. Grey? Out of all colors why grey? With all the black cables coming in and out of my monitors, there haaaaas to be that one grey boi. But I would recommend this product.   ★★★★★ For the price, this cannot be beat Verified Purchase I was skeptical of this cable at first because of the price point, but once it arrived and I hooked it up to my monitor and pc, I was very surprised by the results. I get the full support for 165Hz @1080P (since my monitor is only a 1080P display). No issues with random disconnects, even if I adjust the tilt or pivot on the monitor (that is unless the cable snags on the monitor mount and pulls directly on the connector). Build quality of this cable seems to be exceptionally well-made and expect this to last for long time. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a DP cable and don't want to spend a small fortune for something like this that can do the exact same as major name brand cables.   ★★★★★ Time will tell! Verified Purchase My previous cord of 8 years started to glitch, first once every few months then eventually weekly so I replaced it with this one after reading maybe 1000 reviews of multiple cords. There are so many brands now, I wouldn't be surprised if they all come from the same factory but shipped with different colors and labels. But I chose this one, and for 4 months not a single issue running at 144hz, 1080p off a RTX card .   ★★★★★ Impressed! Thanks Amazon and Silklandtech Verified Purchase To start off the cable is in a reusable tough zip bag for storage. Has removable end cap plastic dust protectors on both ends of cable. Has a velcro tie for cable management. All in all, would buy again!   ★★★★★ This is the one Verified Purchase After going through three other cable brands, this is the only one that could reliably display 1440p at 144hz. So much for "standards". The others could handle 1080p at 144 just fine but when I tried 1440 the screen flashed and refresh rate would randomly revert. This cable has been solid.   ★★★★★ Great Cable but... Verified Purchase If you're planning on using this a monitor mount you'll be moving a lot be mindful, it likes to come out since it's missing the lil tabs that lock the cord into the port aside from that Love the cable.   ★★★★★ Must have for sharpening steel, carbide and diamond sharpening plates Verified Purchase I like to have sharp knives and scissors. These angle blocks help me maintain the proper angle for their purpose. If you use a sharpening steel or stone, this is a MUST have.   ★★★★★ BUILT LIKE A TANK. Verified Purchase First of all these are really STIFF cable. Nice build quality and long enough for my needs. The braided finish should help it to withstand the elements that can render a rubber finished cable useless after some time. They worked flawlessly with my 165hz gaming monitor so I have no complaints.   ★★★★★ Underrated Display Port Verified Purchase I have never heard of this display port but it works great! I have been using for about 2 weeks now and no flickers and supports 144 hz.   See more reviews
Custom Questions & answers
Question: does this cable support 1440p resolution and 144hz refresh rate ? Answer: Yes, that would be no problem.   Question: Is this usb-c to dp cable vesa certified? Answer: The connection for this cable is Display Port, not USB. The cable connects your Display Port enabled video card and monitor together to achieve the highest video-to-monitor refresh speeds of the monitor. In order to use this cable, both your monitor and video card must have a Display Port connector port to connect both ends of the cable. Not all video cards and monitors have the connector. Many have just HDMI. Please check your hardware before buying this cable.   Question: Can this handle 3440x1440p at 100Hz refresh rate? Answer: Dear customer, thank you for your asking. This Displayport cable can handle 3440x1440p at 100Hz refresh rate. Best regards Silkland Support   Question: I have two displays when i connected this display port it made my resolution to 1440x 900 as recommended and wont go higher, how do i fix this? Answer: Dear customer, thank you for your asking. Usually the resolution will be lower when you connect two displays at the same time because of the limitation of the monitors. You can try to connect only one display with this displayport cable, the resolution should be going higher. It you still have any questions, just feel free to contact us. Best regards, Silkland Support   Question: It was working at first, but then after my PC boots up, display stops. Any idea how to fix this issue? Answer: Return it. Mine would not work correctly on both my monitors. I found that the locking display port cables work best.   Question: I have 2 monitors both with native resolution of 2560x1440 dpi. will these cables display the 1440p resolution on both monitors? Answer: I have a new Asus TUF gaming laptop with 4800 Ryzen processor with display port to a 4K monitor and it has no problems with 4k. I don't know about your computer/monitor or what you are using but if it can output anything up to 4K 60Hz, then it should not be a problem for these cables.   Question: Is pin 20 active or inactive? Answer: Dear customer, thank you for your asking. The pin 20 is inactive. Best regards, Silkland Support   Question: does this cable support 240hz refresh rate ? Answer: Dear customer, thank you for your asking. This displayport cable can support 1080P@240Hz but does not support 2K@240Hz.
