Price: $8.99
     
Editorial Reviews: 
One 6.5 foot gold wire HDMI to DVI/DVI to HDMI cable for all your video needs. Connect your DVI computer output to your HD plasma screen. Connect your BluRay player to your computer monitor. Bi-directional cable allows any number of possibilities. Gold offers a vastly cleaner signal over coper or coper plated wires. The reason is that gold can handle more electrical travel than copper. Gold wiring offers the clearest signal available. Also comes with a 100% 123 warranty that covers anything that may happen. Including cutting the cable in half. It anything goes wrong; send the cable in for replacement. Shipping covered.
HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) to DVI-D is a small, user-friendly interconnect that provides up to 5 Gbps of bandwidth to support high-definition video, plus multichannel audio in a single cable. The digital visual interface (DVI) is a video interface designed to maximize the visual quality of digital display devices such as flat panel LCD computer displays and digital projectors. It is designed primarily for carrying uncompressed digital video data to a display.

All interconnects are designed to suppress RF interference and to ensure a clean signal path is maintained. The HDMI to DVI-D cable supports video resolutions up to 1920x1080 and data rates to 5 Gbps. This superior cable features fully molded construction with a flexible satin-black PVC jacket and 24-karat gold-plated contacts. A great choice for high-performance computer graphics, HDTV, and presentation applications, the HDMI cable measures 6 feet long.

Cable Stopped Working after 4 months
2 out of 5 stars.
When I first received the cable it worked fine. Then one day the screen turned white, thought it was my componets, but it wasn't, it was the cable.

great
5 out of 5 stars.
works perfectly, i used it to connect my ps3 to my 22" monitor and it guves a 1080i res, which is awesome!

Not as pictured
1 out of 5 stars.
Item received was longer than 6 ft and light grey, not black. If these things are important to you, don't buy.

Bad quality control
1 out of 5 stars.
I bought this to connect my upscaling DVD player with a new Samsung LCD TV which has no DVI inputs. The picture was pink and snowy at 720p, then flickered on and off when I changed the output to 1080i (while still being pink and snowy). I connected the player to the TV using a composite cable and the picture was fine although it couldn't upconvert. Given the other reviews here, it seems like this cable works great or it doesn't work at all. Do you feel lucky?

It Works!
5 out of 5 stars.
Used free shipping and it got here in 4 days (Left Friday and arrived Monday). So I guess that's fast for free shipping, of course it left Atlanta and it's destination was Smyrna. I probable could have just picked it up if they let me.

The DVI plugs from the HD Box to a HDMI input in the HDTV. The difference is slightly better then the component cables. The TV actually takes a second or two longer to grab the signal from the cable box when you first turn it on. But I'm guessing it has more to do with the cable box then the actually cable.

The cable gets 5 stars because it does what I bought it to do, it's a great price, and it was available for Super Saving Shipping. I'll probable get a 2nd one once I get another HD Box hooked up in the bedroom.
