Rankie DisplayPort (DP) to HDMI Cable, 4K Resolution Ready, 6 Feet (Black)

To begin this tale, a while ago, I ordered a Lenovo L420 refurbished for about 160 dollars and had no problems with it. A few months later, I decided that I wanted to mirror my laptop to my television, so I could browse on a larger screen. However, this is when I realized that my computer did not have an HDMI port; Only 1 Displayport port and one VGA port. The only cables that I had at my house were VGA and HDMI, so I just decided to use a VGA cable to connect to my television, but I had an epiphany (sort of) and remembered VGA does not transfer audio. Because my television only has the option of connecting through either VGA or HDMI, I knew that I would either have to use external speakers connected directly to my computer in order to broadcast any audio at any reasonable level, or I would need to find some way of connecting my computer to one of the HDMI ports on my television. I had another epiphany (yeah…) and thought to myself: “Why don’t I just buy a Displayport to HDMI adapter?” With that thought and a quick search on Amazon, I ordered this cable and you probably know the rest, and that is the story of how I came into the possession of this wonderful cable.Serious stuff: The cable that I received is very sturdy and came in hassel-free packaging. It was basically plug-and-play when I connected it from my laptop to my television. The operating system that I was using was Windows 10, so I don’t know how well this cable would work with Mac OS, Chromium, Linux or any others right out of the box. I assume though, that with older versions of Windows (Windows 7 and up), screen mirroring with this cable will also be plug and play.
