Hey again
Whether its the latest nvidia drivers or something or just the VGA cable, my 8800gt has stopped allowing 1680x1050 resolution forcing me to set it as a custom resolution in nvidia control panel.
I have heard that going to DVI (again - i stole the DVI cable i used to use for my ps3!) will solve it. Now whilst browsing the net for a DVI cable, I've noticed there is standard DVI cable...and dual link.
Will dual link be a good thing? I mean its only a dell 2007wfp (20.1") but will it allow upgrades to say 24"+ later on??
Not quite sure on the best buy for a dvi either
Hi, I have been led to believe, and the little testing I've done tends to support this, is that a dual DVI cable is only needed for resolutions greater than 1920. I have a Dell 30 inch and to run in native mode I must use a dual DVI. If your running at a lower res then a single DVI cable will do just fine.
Another thing to consider is that the graphics card actually supports dual. Although most newer cards have a dual connector not all are actual dual connections
