Diamond BVUMD3 USB Display Adapter supports 1080p HD

DisplayLink adapters capable of outputting 1080p Full HD are relatively rare beasts – so far we’ve spotted a Lenovo model on the market, for a heady $129 – so Diamond Multimedia’s $75 BVUMD3 USB Display Adapter Plus tickles us exactly where we want it to: in our wallets. The compact device allows you to hook up a DVI or VGA monitor to a regular USB 2.0 port on your PC, notebook or netbook, and you can plug in up to six at any one time.

As well as the display output there are three powered USB 2.0 ports for using the BVUMD3 as a mini docking station of sorts. Up to 1600 x 1200 and 1920 x 1080 (wide) 32-bit True Color resolutions are supported, and you can either mirror your notebook’s display or extend it.

It’s worth noting that, since the DisplayLink drivers take a toll on your CPU, you won’t be able to run six of these from, say, a regular netbook. Still, for adding a third screen when you’re already using your notebook’s normal display output, $75 seems something of a bargain.
