It’s been awhile since we’ve seen a truly useful display adapter. Sewell’s latest will come in handy if you need to forcefully push high-def signals through USB. The Minideck USB-to-DVI / VGA / HDMI (video only) adapter uses the DisplayLink DL-195 chip, which gives you support for resolutions as high as 2,048 x 1,152, so 1080p and 1,920 x 1,200 LCD monitors are taken care of.

Pretty cool. And it doesn’t matter if your PC is new or old. Since it doesn’t require a newer Core i7 rig to operate, so your old laptop should be able to handle powering a 24-inch LCD via a standard USB socket.

Sewell Direct is debuting its own USB to DVI adapter for those needing to hook up multiple displays to one computer. It is called the USB to DVI External Video Card and pricing is set at around $150.

The Sewell USB to DVI External Video Card makes use of DisplayLink virtual graphics technology to let you connect up to six displays to one PC (each one needs its own adapter). This particular adapter works with Windows machines only at the moment and sports a USB port on one end and DVI input on the other.
