Cruxtec 5m USB-C to HDMI Cable 18Gbps - 4K/60Hz & 2K/120Hz - HDR

I wasnt sure If It was going to connect to my monitor from my laptop but it did and I'm very happy with it. I wasnt sure If It was going to connect to my monitor from my laptop but it did and I'm very happy with it.

Not working properly setting up at 50hz is fine if setting higher than that won't work Not working properly setting up at 50hz is fine if setting higher than that won't work

I bought, hoping to get a thinner cable.

But this thing OVER HEATS so much. Many times it gets so hot that my screen jitters and shuts off. What a waste of money. I would invest in a cable which is probably 80$ plus!. I bought, hoping to get a thinner cable.

I live on the road, and bought this cable so that I could connect my laptop to a TV screen while I stayed in Wellington. The first time I tried it, the connection cut out after about 15 minutes. I re-connected, then tried it again, but it cut out after ten minutes. I felt the HDMI end and it was HOT--almost too hot to touch. I tried using it with a fan directly on it, but again, it stayed connected for only a few minutes before it dropped the connection.

I thought it must be a problem with the cable, so I took it back for a replacement and explained the whole situation--even showed them my model of laptop and TV monitor, in case there was...view more I live on the road, and bought this cable so that I could connect my laptop to a TV screen while I stayed in Wellington.

I thought it must be a problem with the cable, so I took it back for a replacement and explained the whole situation--even showed them my model of laptop and TV monitor, in case there was a known issue. They said, no, that shouldn't be an issue at all, and replaced it. But when I tried the new cable, I had the exact same problem. The HDMI end overheated and the cable dropped the connection.

So I thought, okay, it must be an issue with this TV monitor. So I waited until I got to another country and tried it with another monitor. Nope, you guessed it!--the connection lasted a minute at best, and the HDMI end was hot to the touch.

It's too late for me to get a refund, since I'm out of the country. But I wanted to leave this review to warn people about this product. I don't know what's up with the sourcing, but it did not work for me. Very frustrating.

If you're wanting to connect a screen to your laptop this cable although is costly Imo but is the only way to go.
Don't bother using a USC to HDMI/USB hub for this purpose purely from my experience. If you're wanting to connect a screen to your laptop this cable although is costly Imo but is the only way to go.
