Hazro Monitor Input

Bonjour_Rodney · 15 Oct 2011 at 12:28

I see these Hazro monitors have 1 x Dual Link DVI-D.

A very quick question if my Graaphics card has DVI-I and HDMI outputs will this work or do I need something else?

Thanks in advance.

Which graphics card are you talking about exactly?

I assume it's not the one in your sig. as I don't think the X850 XT has a HDMI connection.

If your graphics card has a dual link DVI connection then it will run 2560x1440.

HDMI won't run 2560x1440.

A single link DVI connection won't run 2560x1440.

Post the make and model of your graphics card and we'll try and provide the answer.

No, my signature is well out of date.

I have a Saphire ATI Radeon HD 5670.

The HD 5670 has a dual link DVI-I connector.

You'll be fine using that for 2560x1440 but the card will really struggle with games at that resolution (if that's relevant to you).

You'll need to use a dual link DVI-D cable to match the DVI-D connection on the monitor.

I assume the monitor will come supplied with the necessary cable.

Edit

Looking at the OcUK website it's stated that the Hazros come with a dual link DVI-D cable.

No it's just for photoshop and lightroom work.

I don't play games on my PC.

It'll be fine then.

Just make sure you use the dual link cable supplied with the monitor.
