So our Sun donation came in at work today, which included a 24.1' LCD with a native resolution of 1920x1200. In my work computer (a Dell Precision 340, one of those smaller footprint workstations), I have a low-profile Radeon VE card, which has a single connector that kinda looks like a big DVI port. I have a dongle that splits off of that into two VGA connectors to do dual-head. Previously I was running a trinitron CRT and a Viewsonic LCD off of it, both at 1280x1024.So I get everything hooked up, and it just doesn't want to do anything other than 1600x1200.

I updated to the latest drivers from Dell (it's an OEM board), rebooted frequently and all that, but no go - the monitor just shows up as a 'plug and play monitor' with a 1600x1200 max res. The advanced tabs in Display Properties mentions the 'DDC' information from the monitor, and says it's max 1600x1200.I am pretty certain this video card will do 1900x1200 - it was able to drive two monitors at 1280x1024, after all, and I think I could even kick it up to one @ 1600x1200 and one at 1280x1024.Has anyone had success doing 1920x1200 with this card? Any tips on getting it to go?-Ed. Are you using the monitor directly to the DVI port or the VGA dongle?

I'm pretty sure you need to use the DVI in order to get that resolution. The direct DVI port basically has access to the all the video bandwidth, but once you split that port with the dongle, each VGA port is limited. This is all from memory from the last time I was looking at getting a nice LDC, so it may be all wrong - View image here: -. But you can try it directly on the DVI and see how it goes.

But you can try it directly on the DVI and see how it goes.I was under the impression that DVI was limited to 1600x1200 and if you wanted to go beyond that you needed to use VGA.I know for a fact that I can run my 21' CRT at above 1600x1200 from a VGA port, although I don't.w00zy.

Quote:The back side is more interesting - besides the power and USB (for firmware flashing only) port, there are two high-density custom connectors - each connects to two DVI cables for a maximum of four DVI connections. Because DVI supports only up to 1920x1200 resolution at the 60Hz refresh, one-quarter of T221. So, in order to get the 3840x2400 native resolution, you'd need, according to IBM, at least two DVI connections from a single card at once (to get just 21 Hz refresh by the way) or four to get 41Hz refresh.From here:Just FYI. Quote:Originally posted by Pete:Did you try disabling DDC info and checking 'reduced blanking interval?' Just in case you don't want to keep using PS.Yeah, tried that, no go.

Powerstrip was the only thing that would force the VE to do 1920x1200 on that monitor.quote:Originally posted by PUREVILAlso what are the advantages of DVI over VGA? I'm assuming clearer pic, better color, etc. I did some searching but I haven't yet come up with a clear cut answer.The idea is that since it's a pure digital signal, as opposed to one which is converted to analog, and then back to digital, that you get a cleaner, clearer signal. I think your mileage may vary, but if you can run DVI, I'd certainly take advantage of it.
