When others fail, go with Startech
Best HDMI to VGA converters. I have tried many other budget brands and they all failed. The Startech converters always work. Easy to install and there are no synching issues found with other budget brands.

Pretty good
small, easy to use, inexpensive (right now at least). Seemingly very low latency, (around 1-2ms). No weird effects or issues so far. edit, still works great, lag seems to be about 1ms or less (very good) still works great. would recommend for someone who owns a pc crt

Does as advertised, though a little high for price.
This Female VGA to Male DisplayPort adaptor functions as it should. It displays correctly, lists the proper monitor information, & produces what appears to be an accurate viewing experience. It is however a bit high in price.

Display port solved my problem
I have a Dell 4600M, which is a high end laptop. There is a flaw with this machine. The VGA port does not seem to be compatible with most projectors. I work at a large company and everyone with this laptop has the same problem. I've tried changing drivers and spent a lot of time on the phone with Dell to no avail. I decided to try projecting from the DisplayPort rather than VGA port via this StarTech adapter. It has worked great for me. I've used it on 6 different projectors and it has worked on all of them. The only negative I see is that the product is advertised to handle up to 1920x1200 resolution. I'm only given an option to display at max of 1280x1024 when I link to a projector. I'm not sure if it's a limitation of the cable, projector or laptop. But the 1280x1024 is sufficient and gives a nice clear image on the projector. So overall, I'm pleased with this product.

Solid adapter after frustrating local search
After striking out at local stores like Best Buy and Staples—where staff didn’t even know what I was asking for—I ordered this StarTech adapter based on their solid reputation. I needed to connect a VGA monitor to a new desktop with only DisplayPort, and this worked perfectly right out of the box. The build quality is excellent, the connection is stable, and the cable feels sturdy. Very happy with the result.

This adapter rescued my system and saved me from a blunder!
I was on the point of returning a newly purchased Beelink Ser5 5700U mini PC due to an intermittent black screen on my main monitor when I bought this STARTECH DP to VGA ADAPTER on the advice of Beelink's Tech Department and Youtube experts. Boy, am I glad I took their advice! After connecting this adapter to my monitor's old VGA cable--which I used because I KNEW it worked--and firing up the Beelink, everything worked perfectly! There is NO DOUBT that the 'BENFEI 6 foot DP to VGA adapter cable' I had bought previously to connect this system was defective and had caused the problems.
