(More customer reviews)I purchased this USB video adapter for my new 1680x1050 monitor to be able to experience a dual monitor display.
Even moving my mouse is like jumping from point to point. Dragging windows is a big pain. So I decided to use it for my old 1280x1024 monitor. It seems it works better on lower resolutions, but it is still annoying when moving windows around. In addition, playing movie on this adapter is not smooth and is frame by frame.
This adapter is supposed to work up to 1920x1080 resolution, but not really! Don't wast your money on this if you've decided to run it on its advertised resolution.
