Re: 30" monitor and what video card?

In article <m1lgs3tr9f278t2ltqa47lttinlc3rovvr@xxxxxxx>,
BUTthannydI@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx says...

Every EN8800GTS model on the Asus web site shows support for
2560x1600, which should be expected for basically any modern card
(i.e. built in the last two years).

So long as it has a dual-link DVI connector, it will support 30"
monitors.


I see what you are saying. I did a search of Asus website and this time I found
the refrence and you're quite right, of course.

What has me still scratching my head is that when I 'enable all display modes',
even the ones not supported by your monitor' the NVidia display applet only
shows up to 2048x1536 which is way more than my current monitor can display
(1280x1024) but still short of 2560x1600. Retailer's website says 2560x1600 as
well but the box lists only up to 2048x1536 and so does my 'puter.

Go figure. I can't make head or tails of it.

Thanks for the heads-up on the new HP monitor - I haven't seen that one appear
in the stores' listings here (NZ) yet.

regds, -P.
