A:AnswerComputer chip is not visible, but likely encased into cable end. Cable must be installed in a single direction with source end and display ends noted on cabling.
A:AnswerInsignia 4K HDMI 6' cables I have ( had bought four (4) boxed sets of 2 cables in each box)...
If these cables are the ones you are referring too, and are having "issues" with them:
1- the content source name brands connected to your TV/Monitor might be of different -brands- & technologies time frame. These Cables DO perform well for me using different name brands and time/technology because the old content source I am using still are too dumb to be intimidated by latest technology and name brand recognition...
2- Name Brand recognition amongst the content source and Display Technology compatability is a sad reality!
3- it is possible your cables are defectives and you may need to exchange/replace them.
Two way communication and rich 4K content transfer at reasonably price is what I have experienced with 8 of these 4K GDMI 6' cables.
A:AnswerThis depends.
A) a type of adapter (search: lightning USB to HDMI adapter), and you're good to go.
b) If your television is a SMART TV, then you can simply try out a few apps (iOS or Play Store), (search: VIDEO AND TV CAST), and they have multiple supports for several smart tv platforms for casting from your phone to your tv.
Hope that helps!
A:AnswerNo, you should be okay.
Take for example:
If the HDMI cord fits your cable box to your tv, then just take the HDMI cord from the cable box, and plug that into your new gaming PC, and score!
