Review: Read The Description Before You Buy - First for those who purchased this and it did not work, shame on you. This is an Active Display Port Adapter. If your PC does not have display port then this will not work for you. As well if you are trying to run this on mini display port, again shame on you. Now onto the good stuff. My PC at work has 2 DVI and 1 Display ports, my home PC has 1 DVI, 1 HDMI and 4 display ports. These work in both and all ports. I used the DVI as there are many monitors that support it. My work PC has all slots full. On windows 7 all I did was shut off the PC, plug this into the DISPLAY PORT, and turn it on. Instantly had 3 monitors. Within the windows desktop control setup I was able to arrange the new monitor to its physical location. Easy as it gets. My home PC has 6 monitors on it. This adapter was recommended by my video cards manufacture. They are Radeon 7770 series. Again plugged all these adapters in, powered up the PC and all of them came to life. I again had to arrange the monitors in the screen resolution tool. All you do is click on the monitor and drag it to where you want it, its really that easy. On top of that I have it setup part time in Eyefinity. This makes all 6 screens into 1 large screen. Again smooth as glass. To anyone with a display port on the pc this is the right adapter. For those who it did not work with, shame on you for not reading what this does. Review: Works perfectly to convert DP to DVI (remember its 1920x1200 tops) - This adapter works, no finagling, no janky stuff. Just plug it into my DP port on my video card and it converts it to DVI and handles 1080p or 1200p resolutions without any issue, no issues with scan size, screen, resolution, etc, brightness, nothing. Can't tell its adapted at all. No extra power cable, no USB, nothing needed. Simple and works. Lets you span out those monitors from a multi-output video card easily, if you have older monitors that are not HDMI/DP/etc, like older DVI/VGA setups. Remember this will not work for 4k resolution or higher. Get a new monitor for that. This is to simple convert DP at 1080p/1200p resolution to DVI for use on older monitors. Saved me buying a new monitor and/or older video cards (video cards rarely have DVI now for multi-output, its all DP these days). ## Features - DISPLAYPORT TO DVI ADAPTER: DisplayPort 1.2 (HBR2) to DVI-D single-link adapter connects a DVI display/projector supporting 1920x1200 & 1080p 60Hz | EDID/DDC pass-through ensures compatibility between source & display | 5.7" (15cm) attached cable - COMPATIBILITY: Active video converter supports DP or DP++ source incl workstations, desktops (AMD/Nvidia), laptops, small form factor computers & docking stations | AMD Eyefinity Certified ideal for use with Radeon Pro Series Workstation Graphics - CONNECT A PRIMARY OR SECONDARY DISPLAY: Connect a DVI monitor or projector or add a second display to your workstation | Compact design |Tested w/ DVI cables up to 25ft | Supports Apple Cinema Display HD - LATCHING DISPLAYPORT & SCREW LOCKING DVI: Latching DP connector ensures a solid host connection | Supports DVI screw locking cable to prevent cable from coming loose or accidental disconnection - EASY TO USE: With no software or drivers required, the DP to DVI adapter converter works with any OS including Windows, Ubuntu and macOS; DisplayPort male to DVI female adapter dongle ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004SUO1GM | | Best Sellers Rank | #67 in DVI Cables | | Brand | StarTech.com | | Brand Name | StarTech.com | | Cable Type | DVI | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Workstation, Desktop PC, Laptop, Small Form Factor Computers, Docking Station, Monitor, Projector | | Connector Gender | Male-to-Female | | Connector Type | Displayport/Dvi-d | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 302 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 1000 Megabits Per Second | | Frequency | 60 GHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00065030842327, 00999993023335 | | Item Shape | Round | | Item Type Name | Video Cable | | Item Weight | 0.05 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | StarTech.com | | Model | DP2DVIS | | Model Name | DisplayPort to DVI Single-Link Active Converter | | Number of Items | 1 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Compact | | Recommended Uses For Product | Indoor/Outdoor | | Special Feature | Compact | | Specification Met | No | | UPC | 782386483911 632565470181 803982775559 191120111995 065030842327 031112447636 021111595933 999994661512 001910668830 001910088195 778889480533 731215281396 956256565247 650308423270 999993561615 999993023335 777785574933 601000684889 701595018400 806291850221 898029629834 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 3 Year | | Wattage | 50 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** StarTech.com - **Cable Type:** DVI - **Compatible Devices:** Workstation, Desktop PC, Laptop, Small Form Factor Computers, Docking Station, Monitor, Projector - **Connector Type:** Displayport/Dvi-d - **Special Feature:** Compact ## Images ![DisplayPort To DVI Adapter - Active - 1920x1200 - DP to DVI - DisplayPort Adapter Converter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61EOO-HfC7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read The Description Before You Buy *by W***. on July 9, 2013* First for those who purchased this and it did not work, shame on you.

But green line issues. *by C***W on February 5, 2015* I initially bought the Accell DisplayPort to DVI-D, and it would not work. My setup is: - Sapphire Radeon HD 7950 3GB - 3x Asus 25.5" 1200p 60hz monitors My intention was to use it to run games such as Tera Online, Elite Dangerous, Star Citizen, etc. After having struggled with the Accell, I was hesitant to see if the StarTech adapter would work, but it did! Almost immediately after plugging it into my computer, all three monitors popped to life. Using Catalyst to enable Eyefinity, then arranging the desktop playout properly, and I haven't had any significant issues since. I can play all the games at respectable FPS (The 7950 is old, but still a lively beast) on medium/high quality, though I tend to stick to medium in order to ensure good FPS still. One of the issues I'm having (not too huge an issue but hurts gaming immersion) is that on areas with perfect black (lots of those space sims have that often, if you can imagine!) my left monitor (the one with the displayport) and sometimes my right.. or all of them actually (but mainly the left), will have green lines flickering horizontally across the screen. This is for areas that are supposed to be perfectly black. If I switch out of the game or bring up something that has color (planet, menu, etc) the flickering stops, but will continue afterwards. I'm not sure why. But for now, the displayport is holding up marvelously. And at such a low cost! Also, for those of you with my same setup (or approximately), I use Catalyst to boost my card. +20% power, 1200mhz OC, 1350 memory OC, 50% manual fan speed. Works like a charm, and significantly improves my FPS across all my games with minimal increase to heat. ## Frequently Bought Together - StarTech.com DisplayPort To DVI Adapter - Active - 1920x1200 - DP to DVI - DisplayPort Adapter Converter - StarTech DISPLAYPORT to DVI Cable Adapter - StarTech.com DisplayPort To VGA Video Adapter Converter - Active - 1080p - DP to VGA Converter (DP2VGA2) Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/2172609-displayport-to-dvi-adapter-active-1920x1200-dp-to-dvi-displayport](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/2172609-displayport-to-dvi-adapter-active-1920x1200-dp-to-dvi-displayport) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
