Cable Matters DP 80 Cable Model 102095
I have the Cable Matters DP80 cable connected to a 500Hz LCD monitor using a DP 1.4 graphics card. The cable is working well, and there have been no problems so far. I have not tested the cable with DisplayPort 2.1 hardware.The other products I looked at are from Club 3D and Silkland. Monitors Unboxed received a Silkland DP 80 cable from the vendor (instead of buying one from a store), and I think they reviewed a golden sample because there are Amazon customers who report problems. The Club 3D CAC-1092 cable has a higher price than the other two, but Club 3D makes high quality cables (based on owning a Club 3D CAC-2067 cable). Level 1 Techs has done independent testing of DisplayPort cables using a Total Phase machine and eye diagrams.The Cable Matters product construction is fairly thick but flexible enough to maneuver. For comparison: I had a Club 3D CAC-2067 DisplayPort cable. The Club 3D cable was high quality and worked well; however, that cable is very thick and stiff. The Club 3D 2067 cable is so rigid that unless you find just the right position, the end plugs require some degree of rotation to align/insert into the ports. The resulting torque applied is bad for the cable, graphics card port, and/or monitor port. The Cable Matters DP80 cable is less stiff and rigid.

Works Great as Expected
Great cable, provides consistent and reliable signal from my PC to HDR monitor as expected.

Solid Cables
Worked straight out of the box and is paired with a 5090. I can't say I noticed any difference in picture quality but at least the ability is there.

Great DisplayPort cable
Excellent DisplayPort 2.1 cable with a genuine VESA certification that you can view for yourself by searching this cable's model number (102095) on the DisplayPort website. Quite thick but still relatively flexible. One of the few officially certified DisplayPort 80 Gbps cables available in lengths greater than 1 meter. I have the 2 meter that I'm using with my gaming PC and high refresh rate monitor and it's been great.

Terrible Cable
Sadly I have to give it a least one star (won't allow zero stars). My 6.6ft cable lasted only 2 months! Additionally almost from the beginning it began to micro stutter on screen when gaming off my 5090 to a 2nd GEN MSI 4k 240hz monitor. I would not recommend this cable to anyone!!

Good Cable for the new cert
Cable is as advertised running it with MSI OLED and it is the new display certification

One of the Few Actually VESA Certified DP2.1 Cables Over 3ft/1m
With new monitors and GPUs adopting DisplayPort 2.1 this year (2025), these cables will quickly become worth their weight in gold (ironically, because I'm sure they've got some gold plating somewhere).Cable Matters is one of the manufacturers of DP2.1 cables that carry a VESA Certification, VESA being the maker of the DisplayPort standard. This means that the cables have been third-party tested and verified to meet or exceed the standards required to transmit 80Gbps.It's important to note, though, that many vendors 'stretch' their VESA certification by slapping it on every cable they make, but it is highly critical to note that they're not supposed to do that. Every cable a vendor makes at *any length* has to be certified (because distance changes the signal quality, and in high-speed cables, the tolerances are super tight), and Cable Matters has actually done that.Thus, they're one of only a few vendors where you can grab a DP2.1 cable certified at a length over 3 feet (their 1.5m clocks in at just under 5 feet). Distances over 3 feet are hard to come by, and unless you use Fiber Optic-based cables instead (which go for a hefty premium), you won't find many copper-based cables that go for a lesser price but still hold up to the test of 2.1 standards, let alone very many cables at all that carry the VESA certification itself (as of the time of writing this).Overall, I've been using their brand for nearly a decade now (my first cable from them was in October 2015) for various use cases (ethernet in various CATs, DisplayPort, USB, etc.). I've never had one of their products fail other than due to my own misuse (stretching it to capacity, bending it, causing kinks that damaged inner cables, or damaging connector ends, rendering it faulty).
