StarTech.com 3 ft DisplayPort to Mini 1.2 Video Cable Adapter M/F - 4k with HBR2 support DP (M) (F) (DP2MDPMF3), Black

Owned a 2008 Mac Pro for several years along with this 27" LED Cinema Display from Apple. Recently built a PC for the first time and thought I'd be putting this Apple display away for good as it can't directly connect to most modern graphics cards. Quickly found this adapter and it worked straight away like a charm. No hassle. Nothing to install. Just adapt and play away! Recommend downloading the brightness controller that a person made for displays like these on windows, otherwise the monitor will be rather dim when you initially plug it in (still usable).

I was looking for a way to get my Apple 27" Cinema Display (non Thunderbolt) to connect to my new 2017 MacBook Pro which only has USB-C sockets. Apple told me that it wasn't supported so probably wouldn't work.Well this works really well together with  VicTop Type C to DisplayPort Adapter, USB 3.1 USB C to DP Cable Adapter Converter 1080P for Apple MacBook 2015/2016, MacBook Pro 2016, Google ChromeBook Pixel 2015, Asus Zen AiO . Crips display, no flickering and no missing rows of pixels.Only thing I would say is that the MiniDisplayPort socket needed a little tweak as it wasn't sitting flush with the plastic housing. Yes it looks and feels a bit cheap but it works and means I can still use this fantastic display.

purchased to convert mDP to full DP at end of an existing 3m cable. Required due to recent PC GFX card change. Unfortunately, while the 3m original cable was capable of supplying a flicker-free picture to a 144Hz PC monitor, adding this converter at the end meant that the picture now flickered at 144Hz and 120Hz. I had to drop to 60Hz (and even then there was some flicker).I ended up purchasing a replacement 3m cable with full size DP connectors at either end. No flicker at 144Hz.While this converter might have worked if converting a much shorter cable, you'd have to risk this yourselves (even at lower refresh rates). Advice: replace your original cable where refresh rate (i.e. data bandwidth) is important.

I bought this for my Apple Cinema display, does what it does and works perfectly, the price is also very good, much cheaper than my local Maplins so all in all I'm very happy. A little extra info, I am using this with the GTX Titan X so if anyone runes into the same issue with mini displayport and has the same configuration as me then I hope this information is useful to you.

Really brilliant adapter. Works wonderfully with the output of my PC Graphics Card from Display Port, to Mini Port, to Apple Cinema Display! Highly recommended!! Also saw the tutorial/review on YouTube!
