Displayport adapter?

[Rib_Tickler]

Got my 3 Asus VN247H monitors for OC'uk. (Thanks by the way for the deal.) Pluged them into my th2go. Full screen, but only a 3840x1080. Oh well it was worth a go.

So now i'm looking at a Active Displyport adapter to see if i can get 5760x1080 with eyefinity.

But which Adapter do i need. I know i need a displayport active to DVI or HDMI, but does it need to be a dual link one?

ZXSpectrum told me this on other post

"Yep you need dual link for the higher resolutions. Check out the Startech units **Competitor link removed**

Hope that helps "

Do i need the usb powered ones?

Dual link adapters are only needed when you go above 1920x1200. For a 1080p screen, you only need an active single link adapter. For DVI, you'd be looking at something like Startech's DP2DVIS adapter, or MDP2DVIS for mini Displayport. Other companies make active single link adapters too, such as Sapphire and HIS, but OcUK only stock the more expensive dual link adapters at present sadly.
