About StarTech.com USB 3.0 to DisplayPort Adapter, USB DP Monitor Converter
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
87% liked its compatibility with multiple devices, but 13% had trouble with their macbook
I am looking for an adapter that can support both my monitor and drawing display while using a gaming laptop.
I have noticed a video lag when moving windows or watching YouTube videos on the 3rd monitor, indicating compatibility issues with the USB-to-VGA adapter and certain applications or actions.
I cannot run any application with video conferencing on the secondary screen.
85% praised for its durability, but 15% experienced issues
The USB-to-VGA adapter goes well with the cable and is hardly noticeable in my setup.
I have 5 USB display adaptors and have not faced any quality issues or problems. In my experience, most USB display adaptors are of low quality and have issues with driver installation. However, I can confidently say that the usb-to-vga-adapters I have used are durable.
I expected to deal with settings more than once after set up, but it has been good.
I had 2 units fail on me within 4 months, indicating poor durability.

Setting up the extra screen took only 5 minutes.
The adapter allows for distraction of a movie or TV show while doing grinding in an MMO and does not strain the PC.
I have noticed that I need to reload the drivers 50% of the time after having my laptop with me for a few days, indicating poor speed performance of the product.
There is a serious refresh issue and video lag when moving windows or watching videos from YouTube on my 3rd monitor.
81% praised the crisp video quality, while 19% experienced pixelation
I cannot comment on the video quality for gaming as I use it for videos while the Alpha is being used for gaming on its primary monitor.
I have experienced a serious refresh issue while watching YouTube videos on the 3rd monitor, causing video lag when moving windows. This negatively affects the video quality of the USB-to-VGA adapter.
The video quality is not HD and we are technically transmitting video and audio input.
