I have extensively tested these cables and I can say that they are not bad at all! For the money, these are probably the best upscaler-like cables I have tried. They even have a 4:3 - 16:9 switch, something I find VERY necessary. (No one I know ever wants to play a stretched out game.) One of the main things I like about this cable besides the the price to quality ratio is that it doesn't blank out for a second when a game switches resolutions, something that bothered me greatly since my main setup has an XRGB Mini. And sure, they video quality isn't as good as a frameister, but if it means I don't have to lug that around to a friends house to play on his TV, I think its worth the hit in quality. Anyways, I would recommend this cable to anyone that wants their console displayed on a TV on the cheap.
