Q: QuestionHow wold I determine if my source has DisplayPort DP++?

Asked 5 years ago by Dave.

• A:Answer The DP2DVI2 is a passive DisplayPort to DVI adapter. Generally, the DisplayPort or Mini DisplayPort source has the DP++ symbol above it. The symbol is a D with a P inside of it, with two + signs to the left, one on top of the other. You can also contact the manufacturer of the computer to confirm this specification.

Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between using either this DVI (24 pin) to USB cable versus a VGA (15 pin) to USB cable to connect a laptop to a monitor?

Asked 4 years ago by Peter.

• A:Answer It all depends on the monitor input. Most monitors starting in the mid 2000s started going to DVI standard and removed compatibility with the older VGA. But apparently VGA is still used for…things? My monitor has a DVI input, while my new video card only has DisplayPort output. If I only had HDMI output, I would have gone with a different converter. So it really all comes down to what you need to convert to.
