| Post subject: | Active DP adapter for lower resolution? |
My monitors are quite nice but fairly low resolution. 1280 x 1024. I will be running 3840 x 1024 resolution. Using both DVI outputs and I need an adapter to go DP to DVI for my third monitor. Do I need to $100 adapter or can I get away with the $20 passive adapter? I'm not exactly sure what the limit is of single channel DVI but I'm curious if I fall under that limit. Thanks, traustic |

Passive adapters wont work, if your monitors have DVI-I you may be able to use a DP->VGA adapter and then a VGA ->DVI-I adapter, other wise, you have to use the $100 adapter. Or wait for ati. |
