I bought one and it didn't support higher than 1080p (ish), so I couldn't get full resolution on my Dell 30" 2560x1600 monitor. However, bought the same basic cable from Lindy (.co.uk) and it does high resolution, audio and everything else I might want. I think the price might be slightly higher, but they do near instant delivery and otherwise very happy with their service (now buy all kinds of other cables from them)
