*** *** Sapphire Active DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter @ £79.99 inc VAT *** ***

GX-223-SP_400.jpg


In addition to spectacular image clarity, speed and visual effects, the Sapphire HD 5000 series supports the new multi-monitor mode known as ATI Eyefinity. This allows a single GPU to display a choice of images over an array of several monitors. The cards support up to three monitors, with a resolution of up to 7680x1600. This opens up exciting possibilities not just for multi-screen gaming, but also for information systems, multimedia systems and promotional displays.

However, with this family of cards, although two of the screens can be connected directly to the DVI or HDMI outputs on the card, the third display has to be driven from the DisplayPort output. Some users have expressed concern about the cost or availability of DisplayPort compatible monitors, or a wish to match existing monitor styles.

Sapphire has introduced an active powered DisplayPort to DVI converter, which allows any standard DVI monitor to be used as the third screen and enabled in Eyefinity mode. This allows users to update their existing multi-monitor setup to use Eyefinity, or to add a lower cost DVI monitor to complete their Eyefinity system. The SAPPHIRE converter is simply plugged into the DisplayPort output of the graphics card, together with a standard USB connection to provide power. A standard DVI monitor cable can then be connected to the female DVI connector on the unit.

Only £79.99 inc VAT.

5850 prices are looking a lot nicer.

I can't get over Sapphire pricing their DP>DVI adapters so expensively though. It's ridiculous, though it's supply and demand, loads of people want them.
 
Hi Fatboy, any news about the ASUS 5850? i've been waiting for over 2 months. What position am I in the queue? Order No.: OC910613

You are number 1 in the list. But I still have no lead time or futher information about the product.
 
I know this is a bit of a open ended question but how long do you think your Sapphire 5850's will stay in stock for?

I'm planning a major upgrade but the motherboard and the Monitor I wanted are out of stock.

Plus the Deals of the Week are renewed on Wednesday.

I've sent a Webnote to find out when they might be in no reply yet, was also hoping that the 5850 might come down a bit this week.

Prices will not be comming down. Allocations are still tight, product is limited and the new price lists have just been released and some cards in the 58** are seeing a $20 price increase.
 
if you hit the 5900 series section the card you currently have in stock shows as pre-order, you might want to get that fixed.

So what your saying is buy it now because the stock won't last and the price is going up?
 
I just added up the same basket I ordered before the new year and it went from a total of £1588.89 to £1633.17 so up by £44.28. The 5850 I odered is up by a fiver. Quite pleased, I know it not a huge amount but better in my pocket than Gordons.
 
Yup my basket is around £693, but two of my items are out of stock at the moment, so don't know whether to order the 5850 now and have it sit around for possibly weeks unused :(

Wish they would answer my webnote. I could make a more informed decision then
