Seems to work fine for me.  I plugged it in from the computer to the TV.  The picture showed up and sound came through.  Not sure what else you're looking for.  It's a 1080p signal with sound.  The ends appear to be relatively solid.  No idea if this will work for high-end gaming or tons of detailed video work.  But for use as a monitor cable, did the trick me.  And the price was right!
