I used this cable to connect my ThinkPad T60p to an NEC MultiSync LCD2070NX at 1600x1200 resolution. The picture looked terrible - it was full of ghost images trailing off to the right. It was so bad that the MultiSync's Auto Adjust feature would not correctly size the image to fit the screen. It consistently made the picture too narrow by an inch or two. Apparently the monitor "saw" the ghost images on the right and thought they were supposed to be part of the image, so it shrank the width to allow room for them. With any decent cable, the T60p puts a nice clear picture on the LCD2070NX, and the Auto Adjust works perfectly. If I'd read the reviews here I never would have bought this cable, but I was in a local store and needed a spare cable. Next time I'll look up the Amazon reviews on my cellphone!

I just got a new 25.5 inch Samsung T260 monitor (its an awesome monitor!) and used this cable to hook it up to my Alienware... and it has to be the worst cable produced or something, because the ghosting caused by its low quality is unbearable. Get ANY other cable ever made and it will be better than this one. Horrible Product. I would rate this as a 0 star if I could. Even the radioshaq generic cable was better than this one.

I didn't realize it was a problem with this cable until I switched to another one with the ferrite cores at the ends. I had been using this for a few months. It was a world of difference. This cable caused lots of signal interference and the picture was really bad - severly ghosted and fuzzy. Even the LCD monitor's auto adjust functionality went out of whack because of this cable. I have since stopped using the cable and have started using another one as described above. I paid 15 bucks for this at a local store which is daylight robbery. This company should stop selling cables they either don't know how to engineer it or they are deliberately trying to rip off from people who aren't tech savvy. I think its the latter.
