I still have stuttering issues on Windows (mainly while videos are loading), but that is a known flaw with Windows if your monitors have differing refresh rates. I run 2 Dell 1702FP LCD (5:4 1280x1024 60Hz) monitors with my main being a Samsung Odyssey G50A (2560x1440 144/165Hz). So my recommendation is if you are on Linux, mix and match whatever; if you are on Windows, it might be better to match two modern monitors rather than use this. This possibly might not be an issue if you are trying to connect a CRT monitor. The image quality is pretty good, but not as good as DP to DVI (although active DP to DVI are MUCH more expensive). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fixed jitter that a passive converter had. *by on Reviewed in the United States June 7, 2026* I was using a passive DisplayPort to VGA converter that worked fine when connected straight to a monitor. But then I hooked my computer up through a 4-port KVM switch that has built in 6-ft cables plus the cable from the KVM to the monitor. That caused the display to jitter and not be a crisp picture. I ran it through Google AI and it told me the problem was the passive converter didn't have enough signal strength for the amount of cabling. Even though this is considerably more expensive (because the other one was 4 converters for a cheaper price) this 100% fixed my problem. And now displays through the KVM switch with zero jitter, a crisper picture and better colors. So if you need an active DisplayPort to VGA converter it's definitely worth spending the extra money. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the only active adapter you need for a 3 monitor set up with the AMD Eyefinity *by on Reviewed in the United States October 12, 2013* If you have all of the other related hardware, this adapter will get you up and running with a 3 screen/monitor system. I have a MSI graphics card with the Radeon AMD 7770 chip. It's getting harder and harder to keep up with all the possible incarnations that can result from one chip being offered on so many different graphics cards. There are several different versions of the MSI Radeon HD7770 card alone. My MSI card has one full size DisplayPort, one HDMI and a DVI-D out. So three total outputs (and you will use all 3 for the 3 screen Eyefinity set up). You can do HDMI to HDMI for one monitor, DVI-D to DVI-D for another, and this StarTech adapter from the DisplayPort out on the graphics card to the VGA cable that attaches to the VGA input on your monitor. This set up assumes that each of your 3 monitors have one HDMI input, one DVI-D input, and a VGA input. I'm using three of the Asus VS247H-P monitors. Thin bezel, good price, excellent reviews and all three of the listed inputs. You will need the most current drivers and AMD software that supports Eyefinity to get up and running without too much pain. So this is a good adapter at a fair price that will work with the Eyefinity three display set up for monitors without DisplayPort inputs. ## Frequently Bought Together - StarTech.com DisplayPort to VGA Adapter - Active DP to VGA Converter - 1080p Video - DisplayPort Certified - DP/DP++ Source to VGA Monitor Cable Adapter Dongle - Latching DP Connector (DP2VGA2) - StarTech.com 1080p 60Hz HDMI to VGA High Speed Display Adapter - Active HDMI to VGA (Male to Female) Video Converter for Laptop/PC/Monitor (HD2VGAE2) - StarTech.com DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter - DP 1.2 to HDMI Video Converter 1080p - DP to HDMI Monitor/TV/Display Cable Adapter Dongle - Passive DP to HDMI Adapter - Latching DP Connector (DP2HDMI2) --- ## 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.sc/products/4051491-startech-active-displayport-to-vga-adapter-1080p-60hz-certified-dp2vga2](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/4051491-startech-active-displayport-to-vga-adapter-1080p-60hz-certified-dp2vga2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
