1.0 out of 5 stars Little Green Dots, November 27, 2007

This review is from: StarTech.com 6 Feet DVI-D Dual Link Digital Video Monitor Cable - M/F (DVIDDMF6) (Personal Computers)

I bought this as an extension to a Apple 23" Cinema Display. The female end does not accept the standard tightening screws, which may explain why the screen image had hundreds of pixels replaced by bright green dots, especially in darker areas of the screen. Either the connection cannot be made tight enough (lack of screws) or the cable is simply inferior. To check, I purchased a replacement (same female to male 6' dvi cable) by "Cable to Go" and it works perfectly. The replacement cable has tightening screws at the female end, so I don't know exactly why this StarTech cable failed, but it failed. In a quasi-controlled experiment, the StarTech cable gets one star (you do get most of the video signal).

The DVI extension cables appeared to be considerably thicker and higher quality than the ones that came with my computer.
