I've had 100% success using a Samsung monitor (S20C300BL) and a standard HDMI to DVI adapter cable from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001TH...UTF8&psc=1). The DVI input on the monitor is DVI-D (dual link).
One would think the adapter and cable design would be the same, only difference being gender on the cables/adapter, but reading all of the problems, such as the one above, leads me to wonder if the problems are more centered on the design/compatibility of the adapter, rather than the monitor itself.
I think its also important to break out what is likely two distinct issues: one, issues with hdmi input monitors, and issues with DVI inputs, with the adapter being used.
